The stress and deformation behavior of an alarm valve has been analyzed using a finite element method. The strength safety of an alarm valve is calculated for the given maximum test pressure of 2.0MPa. The FEM computed maximum stress of an alarm valve is only 6.1% of yield strength, 370MPa and 4.6% of tensile strength, 485MPa, which are occurred at the corner part between a cover flange and a valve body. And the maximum deformation of $12{\mu}m$ was developed at the middle part of an alarm valve. These results mean that a typical alarm valve was designed with a excessively high strength safety, which may lead to an increase of a weight and a dimension.

A MOV(Main Oxidizer shutoff Valve) controls the flow rate of liquid oxygen into the rocket combustor by opening and shutting operations piloted by a pneumatic force. In order to improve the effective design for sealing parts of poppet and piston assemblies, the poppet assembly has been designed to be just contacted with the piston assembly. However, to avoid a gap at the poppet/piston contact surface and to evaluate the MOV operating performance, an analyze on the force balance during the closing motion have been performed. For the accuracy of the analysis, the friction forces and the hydraulic forces have been respectively obtained by experiments and CFD analysis. Through the analysis, some important design parameters such as the spring constant, poppet friction and orifice size in the force balance have been introduced and the required operation performance of the MOV has been proved feasible.

A safety valve has a valve mechanism for the automatic release of gas from piping system when the pressure exceeds preset limit cause of a defect of a pressure regulator, condensation of water in a pipe. Therefore, for the safety of pressure regulating station, it is essential to study the flow regime and characteristics of safety valve. This article presents the numerical analysis on the flow analysis, the ejection capacity and required effective discharge area of the safety valve that is established in pressure regulating station. Then, the results are compared and analyzed with domestic and foreign regulations such as API(America Petroleum Institute), EN(European Standard), and NF(Norme Francise). Moreover, the installation number of safety valve is considered by using domestic and foreign regulations and maximum reguired effective discharge area of safety valve.

Fuel shutoff valve of a gas generator controls propellant mass flowrate of a rocket engine, by using pilot pressure and spring force. The developing fuel shutoff valve can be self sustained even though pilot pressure is removed in an actuator. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the characteristics of the forces with respect to the opening and closing of the valve in order to evaluate its performance. In light of this, the valve has been designed to adjust the control pressure for the opening of the poppet and to determine the working fluid pressure at which the valve starts to close. This paper also has been designed dynamic model using the AMESim and predicted flow coefficient of the valve by Fluent CFD analysis. Various results from the prediction and the analysis have been compared with experiments. Finally, dynamic characteristics of the valve have been verified with experimental results.

Effect of valve conductance on performance of vacuum system was simulated for optimum design of vacuum system. In this investigation, the feasibility of modeling mechanism for VacSimMulti simulator was proposed. Application specific design of vacuum system is required to meet the particular process conditions for various industrial implementations of vacuum equipments. Geometry and length, diameter of vacuum valve were modeled as simulation modeling variables for conductance effects. Series vacuum system was modeled and simulated with varied dimensions and structures of exhaust valves. Variation of valve diameter showed the more significant effects on vacuum characteristics than that of pipeline length variations. It was also observed that the aperture structure of valve had the superior vacuum characteristics among the modeled systems.

Dynamic characteristics of a control valve, which plays an important role in thrust control of liquid rocket engines, have been analysed by AMESim simulator modeling. A speed control method has been proposed for the control of the valve equipped with a BLDC motor and the performances of this control method have been proved in making a comparison between the predictions of simulation and experimental results. Moreover, it is shown that a control valve with a second pre-filter is enough stable to the flow disturbances. The speed control method for BLDC motor is more simpler than PI gain scheduling method for the application in complex flow system.

Fuel gas compressor system is applied to medium FPSO. In order to avoid surge, this system used the anti-surge valves. When surge occurs it may lead to system's fracture. So anti-surge valves are evaluated structural strength and structural safety. Especially, in emergency mode, valves are must be guaranteed structural safety. In this study, structural strength and structural safety of anti-surge valve was evaluated using the numerical simulation. Unigraphics NX 4.0 was used as Geometrical models, structural strength and structural safety calculation were carried out by ANSYS Workbench 12.1. The ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code is refer to allowable strength and safety factor of the valves.

The solenoid valve is an electro-mechanical device that converts electrical energy into mechanical motion. The magnetic field of solenoid is very closely related to the number of coil winding, the intensity of current and the characteristic of magnetic material. There are disadvantages that the weight and size of valve increase, as increasing the number of coil winding, the intensity of current to augment the magnetic force. Therefore, the selection of magnetic material is very important to reduce the weight and size of solenoid valve.

This paper proposes a methodology for developing the performance of a solenoid valve for vehicles based on the dynamic analysis model by an electromagnetic field. The high performance solenoid model with a low current and high thrust was induced through the shape optimal design of the yoke and plunger. To perform the dynamic analysis of the solenoid valve, the input current profile was analyzed. The speed and thrust information was analyzed by FEM with this current profile. The co-simulation method of the circuit model of control logic and electromagnetic model of the solenoid valve was also proposed to analyze the performance with several current patterns. Finally, the performance of the original model and optimal one was compared.
