Abstract
A flow control apparatus includes an adjustable pressure regulator fluidly coupled to an inlet region and an outlet region and configured to reduce a pressure from a first value in the inlet region to a second value in the outlet region, where the second value is lower than the first value; and a fixed area orifice disposed between the outlet region and an outlet opening of the apparatus, wherein a flow rate of a gas is controlled by the fixed area orifice and is discharged from the apparatus to a gas supply line. The second value is based on a setting of the adjustable pressure regulator.
