pressure-base factor [′presh·ər ‚bās ‚fak·tər]

(chemical engineering)

Factor used in orifice pressure-drop calculations to allow for conditions where the pressure base used for calculating the orifice factor is not 14.73 pounds per square inch absolute (101.56 megapascals); calculated asF_pb= 14.73/pressure base (absolute).
