This paper describes the methods used to measure flow rate of supercritical and two-phase CO2 through short orifices. Orifices with diameters of 1 millimeter and orifice length-to-diameter ratios of 3.2 and 5 were tested. Flow rates through these orifices were measured over a broad range of inlet conditions in the supercritical region with orifice inlet pressures ranging from 5 MPa to 11 MPa and inlet densities ranging from 86.5 kg/m(3) to 630 kg/m(3). The data were compared to the isentropic real gas model for expansion of a fluid through a nozzle in order to observe the behavior of the discharge coefficient. For a given orifice inlet condition, the single-phase discharge coefficient was found to be between 0.81 and 0.87 and was independent of the pressure ratio. The discharge coefficient increased as the pressure ratio decreased when two-phase CO2 was present with orifice inlet pressures of 7.7 MPa and 9 MPa. The critical mass flow rate and critical pressure ratio were determined for each test. The raw data from this investigation are available on the internet.
