We developed a prototype from the design of a trim, which is the most important in the localization development of a 1500 Ib high-differential pressure-control valve used for boiler feedwater, and measured the flow coefficient, the most basic design data for valves. The following conclusions were drawn. The comparison of the design values of the flow coefficients for the existing X-trim and the multicore trim designed for localization development showed that they were almost identical, and the X-trim value was slightly lower. The comparison of the X-trim and multicore trim based on the valve flow coefficient test showed that they were generally similar, indicating no problem with the design. In the future, we plan to compare and analyze the flow paths for the X-trim and multicore trim via flow analysis.

In this study, the multi-disk of a high-pressure drop control valve is designed and manufactured. Then, the flow rate and high-pressure drop of fluids flowing in the high-pressure drop control valve is CAE/CFD. This study involves numerical analysis for the Zambil offshore project of a high-pressure drop control valve. ANSYS used a solver for offshore structures analysis. A high-pressure drop control valve, which transforms the power transfer of a system by reducing the inlet pressure of 345bar to the outlet pressure of 112bar, is a fundamental component in the offshore process. This study not only analyzes the relation between pressure drop and fluid velocity in a trim by using fluid analysis, but also examines the possibility of cavitation in a valve in addition to the plot for the extension of lifespan. It is demonstrated that the pressure drop from 345bar to 112bar is more feasible in the presence of the trim, which can induce a continuous and diminutive pressure drop in order to prevent cavitation in a high-pressure drop control valve.
