I have not understood your question. Do you need to calculate all three for the same process? Please ask the question in detail.

Hello:

To calculate an orifice plate you can read ISO 5167-2:2003 "Measurement of fluid flow by means of pressure differential devices inserted in circular cross-section conduits running full --Part 2: Orifice plates.
With orifice plates you need to use differential pressure transmitters "DP transmitters" and configurate the instruments to process the differential pressure signal by square root and not linearly.
Best Regards,
