Lets assume I calculated a port length of 30 inches (just a nice round number for discussion purposes). And in my port length calculations, I used an end correction factor for a port with two flared ends.
When I go and actually build this port, do I make the straight length 30 inches and add the flares onto the ends? Or do I consider some portion of the port radius as part of the straight length measurement?
The only resource I could locate was the following:
On that page, the author states that 1/2 of the port radius should be considered in the measurement of the port straight length.
