Average Flow Effective Diameter and Flow Rate for Microwire Defects Created at the Stopper-Seal Interface Using a Crimp Pressure of 30 psi. The Statistics Are Based Upon 29, 30, and 27 Different Samples Fabricated With the 41, 64, and 80 μm Wires, Respectively. Data for the Negative Controls (NC, no defect) are Based on 33 Samples
