Flow field simulation and a flow model of servo-valve spool valve orifice

A CFD analysis of the dynamics of a direct-operated safety relief valve mounted on a pressure vessel

“…From the 90's, with the development of computational methods, the computational analysis of the complex flows through valves have became more feasible thus leading to substantial research into the operation and design of SRVs [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16]. For example, Vu and Wang [1] investigated the complex three-dimensional flow field of an oxygen SRV during an incident with CFD (computational fluid dynamics) techniques.…”

Multifunctional four-port directional control valve constructed from logic valves

“…A lot of scientific papers are dedicated to the issues of their performance characteristics improvement, such as papers of Amirante et al [1][2][3], wherein CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) methods are more and more often used to analyze the design of directional valves. The similar trends in the application of CFD methods in the development of hydraulic system components can be seen in the papers of, among others, Del Vescovo et al [4] Chattopadhyay et al [5] and Pan et al [6].…”

CFD analysis of the characteristics of a proportional flow control valve with an innovative opening shape

“…Next, the kmodel was used in a number of publications on directional spool control valves, i.e. Pan et al [22], Domagała [23], and Del Vescovo and Lippolis [24]. However, the use of more complicated turbulence models for a 3D flow through the valve modelling has also been proposed.…”
