Analysis and Simulation of Inner Flow Condition of a Novel Rotary on/off Valve

Article Preview

Abstract:

A novel hydraulic rotary high speed on/off valve is investigated. The function of the outlet turbine and the effect on revolution speed of valve spool are analyzed. The inner fluid flow condition under full open case of the on/off valve is simulated using computational fluid dynamics(CFD) method based on Ansys/Fluent and velocity and pressure profiles of fluid inside valve are obtained. Suggestions on optimizing the geometry of valve to decrease transition losses are given.
