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.

본 논문에서 극저온 추진제를 사용하는 액체추진기관의 재순환예냉 시스템 설계의 유연성을 확보하기 위한 연소기 산화제 개폐밸브 재순환예냉 유로의 유량계수 개선 내용을 소개하였다. 밸브의 재순환 예냉 출구 포트 크기와 밸브 내부 유로 형상 변경에 의한 재순환예냉 유로의 유량계수 값을 예측하기 위해서 기존 밸브에서 측정한 재순환예냉 유로의 유량계수 값들을 활용하였으며, 액체질소를 운용유체로 사용하여 측정한 유량계수와 예측값과의 비교를 통해 밸브 내부 형상 변경에 의한 유량계수 개선정도를 확인하였다. 연소기 산화제 개폐밸브의 재순환예냉 유로의 유량계수는 기존 밸브에 비해 2배가량 향상되었으며, 결과적으로 연소기 산화제 개폐밸브에 할당되었던 설계 요구 차압의 75%가량을 재순환예냉 시스템에서 추가적으로 소요될 수 있는 잠재적인 차압과 재순환예냉 시스템의 다른 구성품의 추가 차압으로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The valve is used on control of flow in a ship. Flow coefficient of valve is very importance in the design of valve. In this paper, three-dimensional computer simulations by commercial code CFX were conducted to observe the valve type and to measure flow coefficient when valves with various angles and uniform incoming velocity were used in a piping system. By contrast, a group of experimental data is used to compare with the data obtained by CFX simulation to investigate the validity of numerical method.

선형으로 움직이는 글로브 밸브의 목적은 주로 유량을 제어할 수 있도록 설계 되어 있으며, 디스크의 움직임으로 인해서 유량을 제어가 가능하게 된다. 본 논문은 유량계수를 예측하기 위해서 전산유동해석 프로그램인 ANSYS-CFX로 유동해석을 진행 하였고 본 해석에서 사용되는 글로브 밸브 모델을 시제품과 동일한 형상의 크기로 설계하였다. 유량계수는 밸브 전개 시 $16.5^{\circ}C$의 맑은 물이 전후의 압력차 1psi로 흐를 때 그때의 유량을 말한다. 다시 말해서 밸브의 크기를 결정할 수 있는 중요한 요인이 된다. 밸브의 유량계수와 유량을 해석을 통해서 얻어낼 수 있었고, 그 해석으로 인해서 분당 0~0.1gal 유량을 제어할 수 있는 정밀제어 글로브 밸브를 개발 할 수 있었다. 유동해석과 실험의 결과로 유량계수를 서로 비교하였으며 그 결과로 인해서 유량계수의 오차율이 매우 작음을 확인하였고, 해석의 신뢰성을 확보하였다. 따라서 실험 없이 해석만으로 충분히 유량계수의 경향성을 파악하는데 크게 어려움이 없음을 보여주었다.

The functions of the plug valve are the control of flow rate as well closing and opening pipe lines. Analyses on the flow characteristics in plug valve port are required to improve the performance and safety at severe operating conditions such as high-pressure and high-temperature. In this study, numerical analyses are carried out with varying the opening rate (fraction of the full open to close) of the valve and the shapes of valve Uk: straight, convex, concave and mixed shapes. The parameters influencing the flow characteristics in the valve are the discharge coefficient( $C_v$) and the resistance coefficient( K). Therefore, the distributions of static pressure, velocity vector and stream lines are investigated, and $C_v$ and K are calculated in each opening rate and shape. In case of full open, the static pressure passed through the valve port has almost been recovered. However, in case of other opening rates, the pressure does not permanently regained due to pressure drop leading to loss. This phenomenon in each shape of the valve shows the different behaviors. Calculation results show that the mixed shape has the best flow attribute.

To improve the performance of the control butterfly valve seals are used to eccentric shaft. In this case, vertical opening gas of the butterfly valve is non-symmetrical, which will change the flow pattern around the valve. In this study, the eccentric drive shaft of the butterfly valve to change flow characteristics are performed numerically. Flow pattern and pressure drop are investigated as the valve opening angle increases for a given mass flow rate. The valve flow coefficient is compared to the without eccentric shaft.

The valve used in nuclear power plant must be qualified but the limitation of the test facility leads to use the numerical analysis. The flow coefficient is calculated with the consideration of the pressure, velocity and geometry. And the flow coefficient is the important physical property which is prepared using experiment or analysis by valve manufacturer. In this study, the analysis model was made according to ISA 75.02.01 and the mass flow rate and pressure drop ratio was calculated. The model of the expansion factor was applied to the simulation result and the pressure drop ratio at the start of the choked flow in the valve was found. With the simulation result, the consideration was performed that the expansion factor is the important physical property to the system engineer in addition to the flow coefficient.

This study have goal with conceptual design for Offshore Structures of high pressure control valve for localization. Ball valve for development accomplished with flow analysis based on provision of ANSI B16.34, ANSI B16.10, ANSI B16.25 In order to localize the Offshore Structures high pressure control valve. Numerical simulation using CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamic) in order to predict a mass flow rate and a flow coefficient form flow dynamic point of view. The working fluid assumed the glycerin (C3H8O3). The valve inlet and outlet setup a pressure boundary condition. The outlet pressure was fixed by atmospheric pressure and calculated until increasing 1bar to 10bar. CFD analysis used STAR-CCM+ which is commercial code and Governing equations were calculated by moving mesh which is rotated 90 degrees when ball valve operated opening and closing in 1 degree interval. The result shows change of mass flow rate according to opening and closing angle of valve, Flow decrease observed open valve that equal percentage flow paten which is general inclination of ball valve. Relation with flow and flow coefficient can not be proportional according to inlet pressure when compare with mass flow rate. Because flow coefficient have influence in flow and pressure difference. Namely, flow can be change even if it has same Cv value. The structural analysis used ANSYS which is a commercial code. Stress analysis result of internal pressure in valve showed lower than yield strength. This is expect to need more detail design and verification for stem and seat structure.

Flow control butterfly valve(FCBV) is known to have difficulty in controlling flow rate along valve opening due to its high flow rate. In low opening condition, the butterfly valve also has some shortcomings such as noise, vibration and erosion which are mostly caused by cavitation effects. Therefore, the FCBV requires proper remedies to reduce cavitation effects and to improve flow control performance. Numerical analysis is applied to FCBV flow to find effects of design factors such as seat diameter and valve opening rate. Cases with 3 different sizes of seat diameter and various valve opening rate are selected for the numerical analysis. From the analysis results, it is found that the FCBV with small seat diameter shows better pressure loss performance and reduced cavitation effects.
