  2. Butterfly valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butterfly_valve

    A butterfly valve is from a family of valves called quarter-turn valves. In operation, the valve is fully open or closed when the disc is rotated a quarter turn. The "butterfly" is a metal disc mounted on a rod. When the valve is closed, the disc is turned so that it completely blocks off the passageway. When the valve is fully open, the disc ...

  3. Needle valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Needle_valve

    Construction and operation. An instrument needle valve uses a tapered pin to gradually open a space for fine control of flow. The flow can be controlled and regulated with the use of a spindle. A needle valve has a relatively small orifice with a long, tapered seat, and a needle-shaped plunger on the end of a screw, which exactly fits the seat.

    Butterfly valve in a large DN-size. Nominal diameter, abbreviated DN (diamètre nominal/Durchmesser nach Norm), is the designation system specified by ISO 6708 for specifying the diameter of trade sizes of metric pipework components, and is the metric equivalent to Nominal Pipe Size. [9]

    Valves are available in several types, based on design and purpose: Gate, plug, or ball valves – Isolation; Globe valve – Throttling; Needle valve – Throttling, usually with high precision but low flow; Butterfly or diaphragm valves – Isolation and throttling; Check valve – Preventing reverse flow (non-return)

    The inside of an extremely large butterfly valve Duplex ball valve Three check valves in corrosion-resistant Hastelloy Stainless steel gate valve. Valves can be categorized into the following types, based on their operating mechanism: Ball valve, for on–off control without pressure drop. Ideal for quick shut-off, since a 90° turn completely ...

  7. Pressure drop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_drop

    As such, a number of correlations have been developed to calculate equivalent length of fittings. [9] Certain valves are provided with an associated flow coefficient, commonly known as C v or K v. The flow coefficient relates pressure drop, flow rate, and specific gravity for a given valve. [10]
