THE EFFECTIVE FLOW AND FORCE AREAS IN COMPRESSOR VALVES.

Author(s) : DESCHAMPS C. J., FERREIRA R. T. S., PRATA A. T.

Summary

THE WORK PRESENTS THE NUMERICAL RESULTS FOR DIMENSIONLESS EFFECTIVE FLOW AND FORCE AREAS, DIFFERENT FLOW REYNOLDS NUMBERS AND VALVE SEPARATIONS, WHEN THE RATIO OF THE VALVE TO PORT DIAMETER IS VARIED FROM 1.5 TO 5 AND THE EXIT PORT RADIUS VARIES FROM 0.1 TO 0.5. THE FLOW REYNOLDS NUMBER COVERS THE LAMINAR REGIME AND THE DIMENSIONLESS VALVE SEPARATION VARIES UP TO 0.04. EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS OF THE PRESSURE DISTRIBUTION ALONG THE FLAPPER VALVE ARE USED FOR THE VALIDATION OF THE NUMERICAL SOLUTION. A BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE EXPERIMENTAL SETUP AND THE PROBLEM FORMULATION USED FOR THE NUMERICAL SOLUTION ARE PRESENTED.
