Computational Fluid Dynamics Analysis of Butterfly Valve Performance FactorsDel Toro, Adam 01 May 2012 (has links)
Butterfly valves are commonly used in industrial applications to control the internal flow of both compressible and incompressible fluids. A butterfly valve typically consists of a metal disc formed around a central shaft, which acts as its axis of rotation. As the valve's opening angle is increased from 0 degrees (fully closed) to 90 degrees (fully open), fluid is able to more readily flow past the valve. Characterizing a valve's performance factors, such as pressure drop, hydrodynamic torque, flow coefficient, loss coefficient, and torque coefficient, is necessary for fluid system designers to account for system requirements to properly operate the valve and prevent permanent damage from occurring. This comparison study of a 48-inch butterfly valve's experimental performance factors using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) in an incompressible fluid at Reynolds numbers ranging approximately between 105 to 106 found that for mid-open positions (30-60 degrees), CFD was able to appropriately predict common performance factors for butterfly valves. For lower valve angle cases (10-20 degrees), CFD simulations failed to predict those same values, while higher valve angles (70-90 degrees) gave mixed results. (152 pages)

Análise do fenômeno da cavitação em válvula borboleta usando a fluidodinâmica computacionalEloir Miguel 02 June 2015 (has links)
O foco desta pesquisa é a análise computacional da cavitação em válvula borboleta utilizando o software comercial Ansys CFX versão 14. Dentre várias aplicações, a válvula pode ser utilizada no controle da vazão de água para lavagem de gases oriundos do processo de fabricação do aço num conversor LD. Foi estabelecido como parâmetros constantes de simulação, a pressão a montante e jusante respectivamente em 150 e 60 kPa e a temperatura de 80C. O objetivo deste trabalho é conhecer, através da simulação computacional, os ângulos em que a cavitação torna-se crítica na válvula borboleta, mapeando as áreas de cavitação, que será validada pelo equacionamento da válvula, de acordo com a norma da ISA. Será analisado o escoamento do fluído, priorizando a variável pressão e diferencial de pressão através da válvula, variando os ângulos do obturador de 10 em 10 graus, até o ângulo de 70. Em seguida, serão feitas novas simulações com as temperaturas de 50, 60, 70 e 90C, haja vista que, a vaporização da água está diretamente relacionada, não somente com a pressão, mas também com a temperatura do fluído. A escolha desta válvula para estudo dá-se pelo fato de ter uma alta recuperação de pressão a jusante, levando ao colapso as bolhas de vapor, quando a pressão se eleva acima da pressão de vapor da água, resultando no fenômeno físico denominado por cavitação, alvo de análise e mapeamento desta pesquisa. O regime de escoamento do fluído newtoniano é turbulento e utilizou-se a técnica de volumes finitos idealizada por Patankar, para resolução numérica, e o software comercial CFX versão 14 da Dinâmica de Fluidos Computacional. Foi utilizada a geometria e condições de contorno operacionais de uma válvula borboleta para investigar as regiões as quais ocorrem possibilidades de desgaste e focos de cavitação. / The focus of this study is a computational analysis of cavitation in butterfly valve using a commercial software named Ansys CFX version 14. Among several applications, the valve may be used in controlling water flow for gas washing originating from the washing process in a steelmaking converter LD. Therefore, the constant pressure upstream and downstream respectively at 150 and 60 kPa and de 80C , was established as constant simulation parameter. The purpose of this study is find out, using a computer simulation, which angles at the cavitation becomes critical in the butterfly valve, and mapping the areas of cavitation, which will be validated by the valve equation, according to ISA standards. Therefore, the flow of the fluid will be analyzed, prioritizing the variable and the differential constant pressure through the valve by varying the obturators angles from 10 to 10 degrees, until it comes to a 70 angle. To achieve this purpose, new simulations will be made with temperatures of 50, 60, 70 and 90 degrees, considering that the water vaporization is directly related to not only the pressure but also the temperature of the fluid. In this study, the butterfly valve was chosen because of its high downstream pressure recovery, leading to collapse of the vapor bubbles, when the pressure is elevated above the water vapour pressure, resulting in the physical phenomenon known as cavitation, which is the target analysis and mapping of this study. The Newtonians flow regime was found turbulent and to numerical solution was used the technique of finite volume designed by Patankar, by using commercial software CFX version 14.0 of Computational Fluid Dynamics. Was used both geometric and operational contour of a butterfly valve project to investigate in which part and conditions of a valve can occur potential wear and cavitations spots.

Ekonomický náhled volby rychlozávěrného ventilu pro vodní dílo Vranov / Economic view of the fast closing valve selection for HPP VranovGipka, Ondřej January 2012 (has links)
The thesis deals with the evaluation of the investment in the fast closing valve replacement in The dam Vranov using Computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The final effects of the fast closing valve replacement will be examined on three different types of valves with regard to the turbine output in operation zone and without the influence of water intake runner and turbine draft tube. The aim of the thesis is to theoretically evaluate alternatives of the fast closing valve replacement and define its basic characteristics and classifications.

This master thesis deals with ignition systems which are used in cars vehicles with gas engines and also with setting of the best moment of ignition of gasoline-air mixture in cylinders of engine. Ways of gas injection at diesel engines and their control systems are also described in this thesis. Next chapter deals with control unit and describes main actions which are necessary for today’s motor vehicles. As illustration is used example of succession of actions which are necessary for calculation and setting regular value of pre-ignition. At the end is shown animation, which can be used for practice lessons in a subject Automobile Electric and Electronic Systems as a example. It will simplify understanding of described activities which are all accomplished by central control unit. For purposes of laboratory lessons is in this thesis also discussed measuring of engine performance with changes of parameter of central control unit.
