Description

The component AnnularOrifice is a model of a flow resistance of a fully-developed laminar flow in the gap of a circular tube with an insert. The insert can be located off-center from the tube by the Eccentricity ratio.

The Eccentricity ratio is defined by

Eccentricity ratio = eccentricity / min(Gap Height A, Gap Height B), 0 <= Eccentricity ratio <= 1
