Abstract

The solenoid valve is used widely across various industries; however, solenoid valves for use in high-temperature environments have to be highly specified, such as those used in thermal power plants and steel mills. As such, we have developed a solenoid valve, using an already developed solenoid, to allow for more specific use. In this type of development method, use of 3D printing is very effective, allowing for a reduction in errors in design and production. This study includes a mathematical model of the solenoid valve. Then, the simulation from the mathematical model was performed using the AMESim (Advanced Modeling Environment for Simulation of Engineering Systems). We made a prototype valve using the simulation results and also measured the flow rate and dynamic performance.
