Abstract:Design basis capability of safety-related butterfly valve of nuclear power plant should be verified due to the regulation of Korea. Therefore, based on the results from the torque coefficient of thin symmetric plate, the nuclear utility has performed the engineering calculation to determine the required torque for operating a butterfly valve and the margin of operability at design basis condition. However, recent research showed that the torque coefficient of the thin symmetric plate used before is rather larg… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
