| Title | Computational Fluid Dynamics Investigation of Butterfly Valve Performance Factors |
| Creator | Del Toro, Adam Johnson, Michael C. Spall, Robert E. |
| Description | Experimental and simulated performance factors for a 48-in.-diameter butterfly valve were compared for various valve openings and flow conditions to determine the validity of using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to predict butterfly valve performance factors such as pressure drop, hydro?dynamic torque, flow coefficient, loss coefficient, and torque coefficient. Experimental data for the butterfly valve were obtained from the Utah Water Research Lab. Simulations were carried out on... |
