Leakage area calculated from combining the ASTM standard with Bernoulli's equation.
Leakage area is determined by the leakage volumetric flow rate and pressure relationship.
Leakage points are small in area and can be approximated as orifices.
The method offers potential for further improvement of HPCD efficiency.
