Experimental investigations on the flow characteristics of downstream region of a butterfly valve, which is used in SI engine, have been conducted according to Reynolds number and valve angle. Measurement programs of the flowfield using x-type of hotwire anemometry include the mean and fluctuating velocity, turbulnet intensity, shear stress, power spectrum and pressure loss coefficient. Experimental results show that flow characteristics and independent of relatively high Reynolds number; 60,000 and 80,000. It is also seen that streamwise mean velocities have relatively large velocity gradient around the butterfly valve with increasing the valve opening angle and this trend appears even in the far downstream region. The distributions of turbulent intensity and shear stress show irregular behavior regardless of the valve opening angle and those of the case of the valve opening angle of 45°are the largest. The pressure loss coefficient of the body surface of the throttle valve increases mildly with the increase of Reynolds number and increases rapidly with the reduction of the valve opening angle.

In general, the hollow jet valve, the fixed cone valve had been used for the urgency released or maintenance of the flow rate. Nowadays, the butterfly valve, the gate valve are applied in economic performance and operation maintenance more than the hollow jet valve, the fixed cone valve. However, in the case of butterfly valve, it should be required the strict application standard to the cavitation coefficient because the structural axis and disk were situated in pipe channel and the occurring the shock problem by Karman Vortex. And, the judgment data for choice were slight lowdown in water supply and drainage facilities standard or Japanese penstock technology standard, various standard of KOWACO etc. Therefore. there were investigated the valve inside phenomenon (cavitation, disk chattering, vibration) by velocity of flow and the stability examination of body by high velocity of flow through flow scale model test using the numerical analysis and PIV to establish the applicable extensibility of the butterfly valve for the urgency released valve.

Hydraulic directional control valves actuated by solenoid are used to control emergency steering in general or hybrid electric commercial vehicles. In this study, a new lightweight hydraulic directional control valve was designed by flow and structural simulation, and was fabricated; the basic operation, pressure differentials, and inner leakage flow were evaluated experimentally. In the results, the new model showed comparable performance with an existing imported valve. New valve was 80% the weight of the existing valve and had few components. Installing this valve on a truck body is easier because of its compactness and small size.

This study conducts the flow analysis on the basis of the impeller RPM of water measuring valve and differential pressure at valve inlet and outlet. The software used for the flow analysis is STAR-CCM+. In terms of the structure of the measuring valve, it has an impeller installed inside, and a metering chamber has inlet and outlet holes. The flow analysis on the water measuring valve drew the following conclusions: The flow rate and flow coefficient distribution according to the impeller RPM and differential pressure were on the linear increase. Regarding the flow field in the valve, the increased differential pressure had the highest velocity distribution, and complex flow field was generated in the measuring chamber. In particular, since the path between the inlet and outlet holes in the measuring chamber and the valve body was narrow, there was a section that had flow field interference. Given that, it showed the feature of the valve used for water measuring on the basis of the impeller RPM.

본 논문에서는 소형 압전유압펌프에 적용된 박판 스프링 형 체크밸브의 변형에 의한 이론적인 압력전달 비율을 계산하였다. 박판 체크밸브는 외력에 의해 변형이 발생하는 유연체이며, 체크밸브의 변형은 챔버 압력이 부하 압력으로 전달되는 비율에 영향을 미친다. 박판 체크밸브를 강체로 가정하였을 때와 유연체 모델일 때의 차이를 비교하기 위해 각각의 모델에 대한 이론적인 압력 전달 비율을 계산하였고, 유연체 체크밸브 모델의 압력 전달 비율 계산을 위해 P-delta 효과를 고려하였다. 또한, 유연체 체크밸브 모델의 변형을 고려하여 계산된 압력 전달 비율의 검증 실험을 수행하였다. 실험에는 박판 스프링 형의 체크밸브와 볼-박판 스프링 형의 체크밸브를 각각 적용하여 부하 압력을 측정하였다. 실험을 통해 얻어진 각각의 부하 압력을 이용하여 실험적인 압력 전달 비율을 계산하였다. 실험으로 얻어진 결과를 이론적으로 계산된 압력 전달 비율과 비교하여 P-delta 효과를 고려한 박판형 체크밸브 압력전달 해석의 타당성을 검증하였다.

본 연구에서는 차단기능형 수평식 가스밸브와 기존 수직식 가스밸브의 변형거동 안전성을 FEM으로 해석하였다. FEM 해석결과에 의하면, 차단기능형 수평식 가스밸브의 나사부와 가스방출구에 가스내압이 작용할 때 밸브몸체의 우측 끝단부에서 최대 변형량 $4.4{\mu}m$가 발생하였다. 두 번째로 큰 변형량 $2.9{\mu}m$는 안전밸브가 설치된 포트의 끝단부에 형성된 것으로 나타났다. 이렇게 작은 변형량이 발생한 것은 나사부, 가스방출구, 스템 및 스핀들 축이 장착되는 포트, 안전밸브 포트로 구성되는 수평식 가스밸브의 평형이 잘 이루어지도록 설계되었기 때문이다. 반면에 나사부와 가스방출구에 가스내압이 작용할 때, 기존 차단기능형 수직식 가스밸브의 상단부에서 최대 변형량 0.076mm가 형성된 것으로 나타났다. 가스유출구의 좌측 끝단부에서 두 번째로 큰 최대 변형량 0.055mm가 발생하였다. 이러한 변형량은 차단기능형 안전장치의 그루브에 삽입된 오링의 밀봉간극에 영향을 미칠 가능성이 높다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 LPG 용기용 가스밸브의 가스누출을 완벽하게 차단할 수 있는 메커니즘을 갖춘 차단기능형 수평식 가스밸브가 수직식 가스밸브에 비해 우수하다할 수 있다.

It is essential for the valid design of a marine flow-control valve to exactly know its flow characteristics. The present study has numerically investigated the flow characteristics inside a marine throttle-type globe valve using a kind of commercial CFD code, CFX10.0, with an adoption of the SST (Shear-Stress Transport) turbulence model. To validate the numerical approach, the flow coefficients are compared with the experimental ones. Results show that the globe valve is effective in the control of flow rate according to the opening ratio in case of the forward-direction flow, whereas it is effective in the flow shutoff in case of the reverse-direction flow. Around the inlet of the valve, a recirculation region is formed due to the blunt body shape, the turbulence intensity becomes strengthened and then an abrupt pressure loss occurs.

Pressure balancing valve is one of important control devices, which is fully automatic and no manual controls, regulating or adjustments are needed. It is typically used to maintain constant temperature of working fluid in power and chemical plants and domestic water supply systems. Pressure balancing valve is composed of body, cylinder and balancing piston. Therefore, the balancing piston shapes are important design parameters for a pressure balancing valve. In this study, numerical and experimental analyses are carried out with two different balancing piston shapes. Especially, the distribution of static pressure is investigated to calculate the flow coefficient($C_v$). The governing equations are derived from making using of three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations with standard ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model and SIMPLE algorithm. Using commercial code, PHOEIC, the pressure and flow fields in pressure balancing valve are depicted.

Electro-pneumatic servo valve is an electro-mechanical device which converts electric signal into pneumatic flow rate or pressure. In order to improve the overall performance of pneumatic servo systems, electro-pneumatic servo valves are required, which have fast dynamic characteristic, no air leakage at null, and can be fabricated at a low-cost. The first objective of this research is to design and fabricate a new electro-pneumatic servo valve which satisfies the above-mentioned requirements. In this paper, we has been modeled as a system consisting of coupled electro-mechanic and mechanical subsystems. The appropriateness of the model has been verified by simulation. The simulation model resolves the valve body motion and the solenoid current at high accuracy. Also, we are calculate the displacement of spool and computed results show winding currents, magnetic actuator force, flux density line, displacement, velocity, back EMF, eddy current etc.

This paper presents an experimental characteristics of electro-hydraulic proportional pressure control valve. In this study, poppet and valve body which are assembled into the proportional solenoid were designed and manufactured. The constant force characteristics of proportional solenoid actuator in the control region should be independent of the plunger position in order to be used to control the valve position in the fluid flow control system. The stroke-force characteristics of the proportional solenoid actuator is determined by the shape (or parameters) of the control cone. In this paper, steady state and transient characteristics of the solenoid actuator for electro-hydraulic proportional valve are analyzed using finite element method and it is confirmed that the proportional solenoid actuator has a constant attraction force in the control region independently on the stroke position. The effects of the parameters such as control cone length, thickness and taper length are also discussed.
