β¦ Synopsis
By careful design of the orifice employed in a dynamic-flow vacuum standard it is possible to ensure its mechanical stability while retaining a transmission probability very near unity. If spherical geometry is chosen the integral equation method calculations can be reduced to simple analytical expressions, and the introduction of approximations connected with evaluating integrals avoided completely. The analytical method provides direct traceability to dimensional data and achieves extremely low uncertainties. Details of the calculation for the orifice within an NPL system are presented.
