TLDR
In this paper, the characteristics of flow in separated, attached and cavitated flow regions are determined and it is shown that while the discharge coefficient scales with the Reynolds number and aspect ratio in the attached flow regions, the diameter influences the discharge coefficients in the separated flow region.
