The goal of this investigation was to explore the relationship between orifice flow rate and the dimensions of the resulting color jet. Equations were derived which describe flow rate as a function of the color jet dimensions, instrument characteristics, and a coefficient which represents the unknown velocity profile across the jet. Experiments in which fluid was injected at a variety of flow rates via an assortment of orifice sizes into a compliant, axisymmetric chamber were performed for comparison with the analytical results. During each injection, orifice flow rate and color jet dimensions were recorded. The experimental results were closely predicted (r = 0.97) by an equation which expresses flow rate as a function of the ratio of the color jet area and color jet length, and with a coefficient which approximates that of a parabolic velocity profile.
