Studies on the Variation of Flow Parameters through a Ball Valve

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper aims to highlight the current line of flow through a ball valve for opening its different angles. We chose to study the values of values 30o, 45o, 60o and 75o as represented in figures. Flow simulations were performed using Fluent 6.3 software, power lines are marked by their tangent vectors speed. For a default value of power flow and pressure were represented power lines following the turbulence and hence the increased loan losses occur. This ball valve operation analysis may reveal different hydraulic energy losses given conditions different valve opening and leads to a modern design and dynamic analysis of operation.
