Compressible fluid flow through control valves will inevitably cause some form of flow-induced vibration in the fluid system. Identifying the type and cause of the vibration requires detective work.

Flow is controlled by either throttling or diverting it. Throttling involves reducing orifice size until all of the flow cannot pass through the orifice; bypassing involves routing part of the flow ...

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 ...

May 17 (UPI) --Scientists have discovered new potential applications for a valve invented and patented by famed engineer Nikola Tesla 100 years ago. Researchers conducted a variety of tests using the ...

Flowserve (FLS) said Thursday it agreed to acquire Trillium Flow Technologies' Valves Division, a provider of highly engineered mission-critical valves used in nuclear and traditional power generation ...
