  FLUID KINETIC ENERGY AS A SELECTION CRITERIA FOR CONTROL VALVES   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
The throttling area of the original valve was the annulus area between the plug and the seat ring.
Thus, the valve pressure drop was increased to a value equivalent to the original trim and the orifice.
The valve instrumented was a steam valve with a flow to open trim consisting of three concentric cages with drilled holes in each cage.

 Proportional Flow Control Valve -- South Bend Controls
The valve is useful for a wide range of viscosities and fluids due to the knife edge variable orifice.

 flow control valve   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
The valve is controlled by pilot valve, which takes use of integrated orifice plate to detect flow rate represented by differential pressure, and the differential pressure is used to control the pilot valve to implement flow rate control.
The 400X flow control valve is a multifunctional valve that adopts the mode of flow control employed by high-precision pilot valve.
This valve differs from other conventional throttle valve, which normally work through reducing the flow area by means of orifice plates or purely mechanically, by making use of an appropriate pilot valve to minimize the loss of energy in the course of flow regulation.

 Control valve technology
Renewed interest in the performance of control valves is emerging, partly as a result of numerous plant audits that indicate roughly one-third of installed control valves are operating at substandard levels.
Rotary-shaft control valves are available in several different types, each characterized by the geometry of the closure member (disk, ball, ball segment or plug).
Control valve selection is based on the process fluid to be handled and a number of performance objectives.

 What's Your Flow Control Valve Telling You?
It is worse for rotary valves because of the gaps in rack and pinion gear teeth, the slots in scotch yoke actuators, the key locks in shaft-stem connections, and the linkage that transfers vertical actuator shaft motion to disc, plug or rotary ball movement.
Control valves designed for on-off operation generally are a poor choice for a control valve.
The control valve that responds best to small changes is a judiciously sized sliding stem (globe) valve with a digital positioner and a correctly sized diaphragm actuator and properly tightened Teflon packing.

 Valve - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Although valves are sometimes made connected or integral with some other object like a vessel, many valves are manufactured initially as a separate item to be connected afterwards to some other object such as a pipe, tube, or pump head on at least one of the valve ports either by a manufacturer or the user.
Valve sizes are commonly given by the outer diameter of tubing or pipng the ports connect to; for example, a 1-inch valve is sized to connect to 1-inch outer diameter tubing.
However, valves may eventually wear out from use and develop a leak, either between the inside and outside of the valve or, when the valve is shut to stop flow, between the disc and the seat.

 Directional Control Valve FAQ's   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
A directional control valve is the extend and retract control for your hydraulic cylinders.
The center position on 3x4 solenoid valves is the position that the valve rests in with both solenoids de-energized.

 Control Valve Info
These valves have a spring loaded locking feature and are designed to lock into place when the valve is in the OFF position.
If a problem occurs with the valve lock not releasing, check that the valve stem extends sufficiently from the control panel and is allowing full depression of the control knob which releases the locking device.
Replacement is necessary if a control valve becomes broken or frozen and replacements for some models are available individually or may occasionally require replacement as a set.

The controller can be used on single- or double-acting actuators and uses FOUNDATION fieldbus communications protocol for easy access to information critical to the process operation.
The electro-pneumatic valve positioner receives an electronic input signal from a control device and modulates the supply pressure to the control valve actuator, providing an accurate valve stem position that is proportional to the pneumatic input signal received from a control device.

Hubbell Model BW indirect fired water heaters are factory furnished with a boiler water control system to regulate the flow of boiler water through the heating coil.
A self-operated control valve allows only the required amount of boiler water into the heating coil in order to satisfy the demand.
The thermostat is wired into the control circuit of the circulation pump and will close the control circuit when heat is required (thereby turning the pump on) and will open the control circuit when the water temperature in the storage vessel reaches the thermostat set point, thereby turning the pump off.

 RF Valve   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
valve, is also operable with either an analog or digital signal in both pressure and vacuum environments.
A proportional pressure controller is all that is required to achieve outstanding performance in services where line pressure does not exceed 50 psi.
Control performance is also enhanced, as each valve is uniquely characterized to flow requirements with either full- or reduced-port designs, thus reducing the turbulence and cavitation found in other valve designs.

 Cashco Control Valve Concepts   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
A Control Valve is a power-operated device used to modify the fluid flow rate in a process system.
When a Control Valve is sized or selected to do a particular job, one of the first questions you should consider is how that valve will respond in the event of a loss of signal or power.
By the comments one hears, you would be led to believe that control valves sit around and think up things to do on their own.
