  2. Flow control valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_control_valve

    Flow control valves, a type of automatic control valve, regulate fluid flow by maintaining a predetermined flow rate, independent of variations in system pressure. These valves achieve this using pressure-compensated mechanisms, which automatically adjust the valve opening to ensure a steady flow rate.

  3. Control valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_valve

    A control valve is a valve used to control fluid flow by varying the size of the flow passage as directed by a signal from a controller. [1] This enables the direct control of flow rate and the consequential control of process quantities such as pressure, temperature, and liquid level.

  4. Flow coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_coefficient

    The flow coefficient of a device is a relative measure of its efficiency at allowing fluid flow. It describes the relationship between the pressure drop across an orifice valve or other assembly and the corresponding flow rate. Mathematically the flow coefficient C v (or flow-capacity rating of valve) can be expressed as

  5. Mass flow controller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_flow_controller

    The flow rate is specified as a percentage of its calibrated full scale flow and is supplied to the MFC as a voltage signal. Mass flow controllers require the supply gas or liquid to be within a specific pressure range. Low pressure will starve the MFC of fluid and cause it to fail to achieve its setpoint. High pressure may cause erratic flow ...

  6. Automatic balancing valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_balancing_valve

    The effects a variable flow system had on the selection of control valves, was not initially realized. A control valve was selected by using the same K v calculation, and the bypass on a 3-port valve blocked, giving a 2-port valve. It was not that simple. This is because our K v calculation K v = flow rate [m 3 /h] / ΔP [bar

  7. Choked flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Choked_flow

    The upstream volumetric flow rate is lower than the downstream condition because of the higher upstream density. The choked velocity is a function of the upstream pressure but not the downstream. Although the velocity is constant, the mass flow rate is dependent on the density of the upstream gas, which is a function of the upstream pressure.

  8. List of valves - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_valves

    Valves can be categorized also based on their function: Check valve or non-return valve, allows the fluid to pass in one direction only; Flow control valve, to maintain and control a variable flow rate through the valve; Poppet valve, commonly used in piston engines to regulate the fuel mixture intake and exhaust; Pressure-balanced valve

  9. Flow distribution in manifolds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_distribution_in_manifolds

    [4] [5] [6] A generalized model of the flow distribution in channel networks of planar fuel cells. [6] Similar to Ohm's law, the pressure drop is assumed to be proportional to the flow rates. The relationship of pressure drop, flow rate and flow resistance is described as Q 2 = ∆P/R. f = 64/Re for laminar flow where Re is the Reynolds number.
