수계소화시스템 버터플라이 밸브의 성능해석에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 버터플라이 밸브의 성능해석으로는 토크특성, 압력손실과 캐비테이션을 고찰하였다. 밸브의 토크특성은 토크 이론식에 밸브 디스크의 개도각이 보정되었고, 보정식이 추가되었다. 밸브의 열림각에 대한 압력손실계수는 Carnot 방정식을 응용하여 수식화하였다. 버터플라이 밸브의 토크특성, 압력손실과 캐비테이션은 디스크의 두께와 직경 비에 대해 해석하였다. 캐비테이션은 밸브의 압력손실계수로부터 해석하였다. 압력손실과 캐비테이션 해석은 밸브의 열림각에 대한 두께 비의 변화에 따라 수행하였다. 이들 해석 데이터는 버터플라이 밸브를 개발하는데 필요한 엔지니어링 데이터로 활용하고자 한다.

The butterfly valve is widely used in the industrial field as an on-off or a flow control valve. When the butterfly valve is used as a flow control valve. cavitation sometimes occurs in the range of high flow rate because of the small valve opening. Therefore. the pressure loss and the cavitation characteristics are investigated by use of a commercial CFD code. The results show that the possibility of cavitation occurrence in the cryogenic butterfly valve is very high in the case of valve opening angle below 10 degree and incident velocity over 6m/s. By increasing the inlet velocity at 10 degree of valve opening angle. the value of loss coefficient increased. However. by increasing the inlet velocity at 50 degree of valve opening angle. the value of loss coefficient decreased.

The objective of this study is to simulate valve flow coefficient and flow characteristics such as velocity and pressure distribution for butterfly valve. The size of the valve used in this study is 125A. The range of the valve opening angle was α=15°~70°, and it was changed by 5°. At the range of α=15°~30°, the valve flow coefficient K_𝜐 gradually increased, and after α=30°, it increased rapidly. In the range of α=20°~70°, the pressure change in the -2.9cm~+2.9cm region in the pipe greatly depended on the opening angle and the position within the pipe. However, after +2.9cm, the pressure at the rear end of the valve was shown to depend only on the opening angle. At α=20°, Vortex shedding occurred for the first time at time t=0.25sec and continuously occurred in rear end of the valve over time. After α=45°, in the flow pattern at the rear end of the valve, the upward flow at the lower end of the valve and the flow at the upper end met each other to form a mixed flow. This flow phenomenon was shown to form a more intense mixed flow in the rear end region as the opening angle increased. Vortex flow occurred for the first time at α=15°, and the opening angle increased, the occurrence and disappearance of this flow phenomenon occurred periodically according to the certain flow region. The pattern of the pressure distribution in the region at the rear end of the valve showed a tendency to agree well with the results of the vorticity distribution.
