임펠러 타입 계량 밸브 입·출구 차압에 따른 유동해석에 관한 연구

Abstract

This study conducts the flow analysis on the basis of the impeller RPM of water measuring valve and differential pressure at valve inlet and outlet. The software used for the flow analysis is STAR-CCM+. In terms of the structure of the measuring valve, it has an impeller installed inside, and a metering chamber has inlet and outlet holes. The flow analysis on the water measuring valve drew the following conclusions: The flow rate and flow coefficient distribution according to the impeller RPM and differential pressure were on the linear increase. Regarding the flow field in the valve, the increased differential pressure had the highest velocity distribution, and complex flow field was generated in the measuring chamber. In particular, since the path between the inlet and outlet holes in the measuring chamber and the valve body was narrow, there was a section that had flow field interference. Given that, it showed the feature of the valve used for water measuring on the basis of the impeller RPM.
