    Valve

    A valve is a device that regulates the flow of fluids through passageways by opening, closing, or partially obstructing the pathways. Valves have many components including a body, ports, a seat, a disc or closure member, and seals. There are several main types of valves such as ball valves, butterfly valves, gate valves, globe valves, and check valves, which vary in their design and purpose. Ball valves control flow using a spherical disc that rotates to expose the passageway, while butterfly valves use a rotating disk on a shaft and gate valves use a sliding disk perpendicular to flow. Globe valves have a disc that moves perpendicular to the flow and closes on a ring seat to allow for throttling. Check valves only

    What is valve???

    A valve is a device that regulates, directs or controls the flow of a fluid (gases, liquids, fluidized solids, or slurries) by opening, closing, or partially obstructing various passageways.

    Functions of valve
    Valves vary widely in form and application. Sizes typically range from 0.1 mm to 60 cm. Special valves can have a diameter exceeding 5 meters Disposable valves may be found inside common household items including minipump dispensers and aerosol cans.

    Components of valve
    1)BODY 7)BONNETS 2)PORTS 6)HANDLE 5) DISC 3)SEAT 4)STEAM 10)GASKETS VALVE BALLS SPRING TRIM

    Types of valve
    Ball valve Butterfly valve Gate valve Globe valve Check valve

    Parts of a Valve
    Closure member: part of the valve that closes flow (disk, ball, gate, etc.). Actuator: means of operating the valve hand, gear, chain wheel, motor, solenoid, pressure and flow of the media, air pressure End fitting: must be specified when buying the valve - butt weld end, compression flange, pipe thread, quick disconnect

    Material: closure member, housing, seat stainless steel Packing/seals: seals stem, replaced Seat: where the closure members seals against the valve housing

    Ball valve
    Sphere with a port in a housing, rotate to expose channel.
    Applications: Flow control, pressure control, shutoff, corrosive fluids, liquids, gases, high temp. Advantages low pressure drop, low leakage, small, rapid opening

    Disadvantages seat can wear if used for throttling, quick open may cause hamme

    Butterfly valve
    Rotating disk on a shaft, in a housing

    Low pressure, large diameter lines where leakage is unimportant Advantages low pressure drop, small and light weight Disadvantages high leakage, high actuation forces so limited to low pressures

    Gate valve
    Sliding disk, perpendicular to flow

    Applications: Stop valves, (not throttling), high pressure and temp, not for slurries, viscous fluids
    Advantages low pressure drop when fully open, tight seal when closed, free of contamination buildup Disadvantages vibration when partially open, slow response and large actuating force

    Globe valve
    Three types (globe, angle and Y), disc or plug moved perpendicular to flow and closes on a ring seat Throttling, general purpose flow control valve

    Advantages faster than gate, seat less wear and tear, high pressure drop for pressure control
    Disadvantage high pressure drop, require considerable power to operate (gears and levers), heavy.

    Check valve
    Allows flow in only one direction Swing valve similar to butterfly except hinged along one edge rather than rotate about the diameter, used primarily for check valves.
