The article presents a numerical CFD simulation of a throttle-check valve used in an innovative control system for two pneumatic drives. This type of control is used in an innovative rehabilitation ...

A single power plant uses hundreds of valves to control almost every aspect of its operation. Valves, in conjunction with a controlling actuator, are used for pollution control, feed water, cooling ...

Piezo elements are electromechanical transducers that convert mechanical forces (pressure, tensile stress or acceleration) into voltages. The inverse piezoelectric effect, precisely the opposite, ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. Today’s manufacturers routinely demand exacting precision and split-second timing from their high-speed production ...

Feedwater control valves play a critical role in boiler operation. One important parameter of their design is the pressure drop at the rated condition as well as off-design conditions. However, ...
