General Control valves. INTRODUCTION :- Control valves also called final control element are a most important element in the control system of a process plant. It is the last device in control loop. DEFINITION :- A control valve is a variable orifice used to regulate the flow of a process fluid in accordance with requirement of process. FUNCTION :- It absorbs the proper amount of pressure drop to maintain system balance under all operating conditions. General Control Valves. Prepared by: Gavhane D.V. 3
Features of Control valves. THERE ARE FOUR FEATURES OF CONTROL VALVES : Capacity Rangeability Characteristics Pressure drop CAPACITY : The capacity is normally measured as Cv (Flow Coefficient) which is defined as : “The number of US gallons per minute of water at 60oF that will flow through a valves with 1psi pressure drop . RANGEABILITY : Rangeability of a Control Valve is the ratio of the maximum to the minimum controllable flow. General Control Valves. Prepared by: Gavhane D.V. 4
Control valves and Flow Characteristics. The relationship between control valve capacity and valve stem travel is known as the Flow Characteristic of the control valve. The Curve shown are based on constant Pressure drop across the valve and called Inherent flow characteristics. General Control Valves. Prepared by: Gavhane D.V. 5
Linear Characteristics. Flow Capacity increases linearly with valve (stem) travel. In which the valve differential pressure drop is Constant over the travel range. Linear valve plug shall for liquid level control and control application requiring constant gain. LINEAR VALVE TRAVEL IS DIRECTLY PROPORTIONAL TO THE VALVE STROKE MORE THAN FOR SLOW 40% FLUID OF SYTEM TRANSFER PRESSURE PROCESS DROP ACROSS VALVE General Control Valves. Prepared by: Gavhane D.V. 6
Equal Percentage Characteristics. Flow Capacity increases exponentially with valve trim travel .Equal increment of valve travel produce equal percentage change in existing Cv. Equal Percentage valve plug shall be used where only small percentage of system drop is available in Control valve. EQUAL INCREMENT OF VALVE TRAVEL PRODUCE AN EQUAL PERCENT FLOW CHANGE FOR FAST FLIUD HIGH TRANSFER RANGEABILITY PROCESS General Control Valves. Prepared by: Gavhane D.V. 7
Quick Opening Characteristics. Provides large changes in flow for very small changes in lift or in which a maximum Cv is achieved with minimal closure member travel. It has too high valve gain. LARGE INCREASE IN FLOW WITH A SMALL CHANGE IN VALVE STROKE Quick opening valve are usually specified for “ON-OFF” Service such as sequential operation in either batch or semi continuous process and in self actuated control valve . When maximum valve capacity must be obtain quickly. Cage- A part of a valve that surrounds the closure member & can provide Quick opening flow characterization. General Control Valves. Prepared by: Gavhane D.V. 8
Cavitation. Cavitation is condition that occurs in liquid flow where the internal pressure of liquid at set point falls below vapour pressure and vapour bubbles form and at downstream rises above vapour pressure again. As this pressure recovers so that bubbles collapse and cavitation take place. It is possible to predict where cavitation will occur by looking pressure condition and valve recovery factor.( sigma Method ) Cavitation sounds like stone passing through the valve. PRESSURE PROFILE ACROSS P SINGLE SEATED CONTROL VALVE P Pv Bubble collapse Bubble form Vena Contracta General Control Valves. Prepared by: Gavhane D.V. 9
Effect of Cavitation. Erosion in rotary plug valve body induced by cavitation General Control Valves. Prepared by: Gavhane D.V. 10
Flashing. Flashing is condition that occurs with liquid flow where the Pressure fails below it . There are then two phases flowing ( i.e. Liquid and vapour ) down stream. Several damage can occur inside a valve due to erosion caused by the impact of liquid droplet traveling at high speed.

Effect of Flashing. Typical trim erosion damage due to flashing General Control Valves. Prepared by: Gavhane D.V. 12
Velocity Profile across Single seated Valve. P1 PRESSURE PROFILE ACROSS SINGLE SEATED CONTROL VALVE Pv P2 V2 V 1(Liquid) (Liquid) Pressure Recovery:- At vena contracta,the velocity is greatest & substantially decrease in pressure .Further down stream, as the fluid stream expands into a large area, Velocity decreases and pressure increases. This phenomena is called Pressure recovery. As a general ,globe valves have Lower pressure recovery than Ball and Butterfly Valves. General Control Valves. Prepared by: Gavhane D.V. 13
Piping Influence/Reynolds Number/Choked Flow. Piping Influenence:- Capacity reduction due to the presence of Reducer Up & Down stream of the valve. Correction factor will be available from manufacturer . Reynolds Number :- For Reynolds number application such as viscous or small flow , the basic sizing equation can not be used without correction, since the equation is based on turbulence flow . Correction factor will be available from manufacturer .(The ratio of dynamic forces to viscous forces) Usually the correction can be ignored when Reynolds number is greater than 4000,the correction will be 10% or less . Choked Flow:- When the pressure at vena contracta drop below the vapor pressure of the liquids, bubbles will form in the stream .The formation of bubbles causes a crowding condition at vena contracta which tends to restrict flow, and further increase in pressure drop will not produce increase in flow. In case of gas , choked flow means outlet velocity reaches sonic velocity. The limiting Pressure difference ΔPt is called Maximum allowable differential pressure for sizing. General Control Valves.

Vendor Design Documents- Sizing & Selection Step # 1:- Define the system Example :- The system is pumping water from one tank to another through a piping system total pressure drop is 150psi.The fluid is water at 700F.Design (maximum) flow of 150 gpm,operating flow rate of 110 gpm,and minimum flow rate of 25gpm. Pipe diameter is 3 inches. At 700F, water has has a specific gravity of1.0 Key Variables:- Total pressure drop , design flow ,operating flow, minimum flow diameter, specific gravity. Step # 2:- Define Max. Allowable Pressure Drop For The Valve When defining the allowable pressure drop across the valve, you should first investigate the pump.What is its maximum available head? Remember that the system pressure drop is limited by the pump. Essentially the Net Positive Suction Head Available (NPSHA) minus the Net Positive Suction Head Required (NPSHR) is the maximum available pressure drop for the valve to use and this must not be exceeded or another pump will be needed. The usual rule of thumb is that a valve should be designed to use 10-15% of the total pressure drop or 10 psi, whichever is greater. For above example step#1 system, 10% of the total pressure drop is 15 psi which is what we'll use as our allowable pressure drop when the valve is wide open (the pump is our system is easily capable of the additional pressure drop). General Control Valves. Prepared by: Gavhane D.V. 35
STEP #3: Calculate the valve characteristic General Control Valves. Prepared by: Gavhane D.V. 36
Step#4:-Preliminary Valve Selection The Cv value should be used as a guide in the valve selection, not a hard and fast rule. Some other considerations are: a. Never use a valve that is less than half the pipe size b. Avoid using the lower 10% and upper 20% of the valve stroke. The valve is much easier to control in the 10-80% stroke range. Before a valve can be selected, we have to decide what type of valve will be used . For our case, we'll assume we're using an equal percentage, globe valve . The valve chart for this type of valve is shown below. This is a typical chart that will be supplied by the manufacturer. For our case, it appears the 2 inch valve will work well for our Cv value at about 80-85% of the stroke range. Notice that we're not trying to squeeze our Cv into the 1 1/2 valve which would need to be at 100% stroke to handle our maximum flow. General Control Valves. Prepared by: Gavhane D.V. 37
Typical Chart Supplied by Manufacturer. General Control Valves. Prepared by: Gavhane D.V. 38
Step# 5:-Check Cv & Stroke % at Min. Flow If the stroke percentage falls below 10% at our minimum flow, a smaller valve may have to be used in some cases. Judgments plays role in many cases. For example, is your system more likely to operate closer to the maximum flowrates more often than the minimum flowrates? Or is it more likely to operate near the minimum flow rate for extended periods of time. It's difficult to find the perfect valve, but you should find one that operates well most of the time. Let's check the valve we've selected for our system: General Control Valves. Prepared by: Gavhane D.V. 39
Step#6:Check Gain across Applicable Flow Rates • Gain is defined as: • • Now, at our three flowrates: Qmin = 25 gpm Qop = 110 gpm Qdes = 150 gpm we have corresponding Cv values of 6.5, 28, and 39. The corresponding stroke percentages are 35%, 73%, and 85% respectively. Now we construct the following table: Flow (gpm) Stroke (%) Change in (gpm) Change in Stroke (%) 25 35 110-25=85 73-35=38 110 73 150 85 150-110=40 85-73=12 Gain #1 = 85/38 = 2.2 Gain #2 = 40/12 = 3.3 General Control Valves. Prepared by: Gavhane D.V. 40
General Control valve Gain. The difference between these values should be less than 50% of the higher value. 0.5 (3.3) = 1.65 and 3.3 - 1.65 = 1.65. Since 2.2 is closer than 50%, there should be problem with controlling the valve. Also note that the gain should never be less than 0.50. Turndown :- It is ratio of the calculated Cv at maximum condition to the calculated Cv minimum. Rangeability :- It is ratio of Cv of the valve fully open to the minimum Cv at which it can control. The rangebility of the selected valve must exceed the turndown requirements of the application. General Control Valves. Prepared by: Gavhane D.V. 41
