  2. List of valves - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_valves

    Gate valve, mainly for on–off control, with low pressure drop; Globe valve, good for regulating flow. Uses a cylinder movement over a seat; Knife valve, similar to a gate valve, but usually more compact. Often used for slurries or powders on–off control; Needle valve for accurate flow control; Pinch valve, for slurry flow regulation and ...

  3. Choke valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Choke_valve

    Choke valves are generally used in naturally aspirated engines to supply a richer fuel mixture when starting the engine. Most choke valves in engines are butterfly valves mounted upstream of the carburetor jet to restrict air flow there and produce a higher partial vacuum downstream, which increases the fuel draw. [1]

  4. Flow control valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_control_valve

    Control valves can also work with hydraulic actuators (also known as hydraulic pilots). These types of valves are also known as automatic control valves. The hydraulic actuators respond to changes of pressure or flow and will open or close the valve. Automatic control valves do not require an external power source, meaning that the fluid ...

    The two main pumps supply oil at high pressure (up to 5000 psi, 345 bar) for the arms, swing motor, track motors and accessories while the third is a lower pressure (≈700 psi, 48 bar) pump for pilot control of the spool valves; this third circuit allows for reduced physical effort when operating the controls. Generally, the 3 pumps used in ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blowout_preventer

    A typical subsea deepwater blowout preventer system includes components such as electrical and hydraulic lines, control pods, hydraulic accumulators, test valve, kill and choke lines and valves, riser joint, hydraulic connectors, and a support frame. Two categories of blowout preventer are most prevalent: ram and annular. BOP stacks frequently ...

  9. Christmas tree (oil well) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christmas_tree_(oil_well)

    The first primitive Christmas tree was used by the Hamill Brothers to bring Spindletop under control. It consisted of a T-valve, with a 6-inch (150 mm) and 8-inch (200 mm) valve on the vertical pipe, and a 6-inch valve on the horizontal pipe. The vertical valve was closed first, and then the valve to the horizontal pipe. [1] [2]
