  2. Gate valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gate_valve

    At high pressures, friction can become a problem. As the gate is pushed against its guiding rail by the pressure of the medium, it becomes harder to operate the valve. Large gate valves are sometimes fitted with a bypass controlled by a smaller valve to be able to reduce the pressure before operating the gate valve itself. Gate valves without ...

    Used in oil and gas wellheads, where the pressure drop is high. (Not to be confused with engine choke valve, below.) Diaphragm valve or membrane valve, controls flow by movement of a diaphragm. Used in pharmaceutical applications; Gate valve, mainly for on–off control, with low pressure drop; Globe valve, good for regulating flow. Uses a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_valve

    Examples: Gate valve, ball valve, globe valve, angle valve, pinch valve, diaphragm valve; Check valve: Allows flow only in a single direction; Steam conditioning valve: Regulates the pressure and temperature of inlet media to required parameters at outlet. Examples: Turbine bypass valve, process steam letdown station

    The fill valve in a toilet water tank is a liquid level-actuated valve. When a high water level is reached, a mechanism shuts the valve which fills the tank. In some valve designs, the pressure of the flow fluid itself or pressure difference of the flow fluid between the ports automatically controls flow through the valve.

  6. Gate (hydraulic engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gate_(hydraulic_engineering)

    When using a gate, one thing that is used in certain applications such as manufacturing, mining, and others is the gate valve. Fluids will run through the valve to help lubricate the moving parts of a machine, transmit power, close off openings to moving parts, and to assist evaporating the amount of heat coming through.

  7. Valve leakage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_leakage

    Valve leakage refers to flow through a valve which is set in the 'off' state.. The importance of valve leakage depends on what the valve is controlling. For example, a dripping tap is less significant than a leak from a six-inch pipe carrying high-pressure radioactive steam.
