Abstract | ||||
flow simulation was performed on four commercial valve models having different internal geometry configurations. The commercial software Solidworks 2014 was used to understand the effect of the valve geometry on the flow pressure and velocity. Boundary conditions of each valve were set to easily observe the behavior of the flow within each valve. Also, pressure drop 𝜟𝑷, and loss coefficient Kl were determined. Moreover, 3D flow visualizations of pressure and velocity were presented. | ||||
