A Review on CFD Analysis of Control Valves

Journal Title: GRD Journal for Engineering - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 7

Abstract

Control valves are generally used as flow control equipment in many industries. The parameter for the performance of control valve analysis is flow coefficient. There is an experimental method to calculate the flow coefficient value of the valve, but the setup for the experimental validation is not readily available as these valves work at high pressure. Due to the progress of the flow simulation and numerical technique (CFD), it becomes possible to observe the flows inside a valve and to estimate the performance of a valve. This paper reviews the researches of the authors in modeling and simulation of the different control valves. The results of this paper provides people with the access of understanding the flow pattern of the valve with different flow rate and also determines the methods which could be adopted to improve the performance of the valve.
