Figure 13.14 in §13.2 shows a sharp-edged orifice. Note that the metal surface immediately downstream of the leading edge makes an acute angle with the metal of the upstream face of the orifice. Do you think the orifice would operate the same (have the same flow coefficient, K) if that angle were 90°? Explain how you came to your conclusion.
