Numerical Simulation and Analysis on 3D Flow in Large-diameter Butterfly Valve

LI Fu-tang

Open publisher page 3 citations

Abstract

In according with customer's requirement,using commercial flow calculation software FLUENT,3D numerical simulation and analysis was carried out based on the different opening of large-diameter butterfly valve.The structure of valve was modified according to the analysis result.Further research shows that performance of improved valve has got better and flow resistance parameter of valve has obviously been reduced.It is useful to butterfly valve's optimum design thereafter.
