Book excerpt: The control of bulk fluid flows in pipelines is essential for safe and efficient plant operation, whether the product is oil, gas, process liquid, chemicals or water. Problems such as leakage and valve jamming have been reported as common by offshore industrial users, who demand longer life and greater reliability. Manufacturers have responded with new concepts and new materials, including a variety of plastics, in an effort to meet the needs of complex modern systems operating at high temperatures and pressures. This meeting provided a forum for system designers, operators, manufacturers and researchers to discuss methods of improving valve performance and promoting better valve selection and specification. Ways in which the valve industry can use techniques, such as computer-aided-design and product quality monitoring, to keep pace with future developments, for example, subsea oil and gas stations, were also covered.

Book excerpt: The flow of two-phase mixtures through restrictions. is a complex phenomenon that to date has not been fully described analytically. It is an area that received a geat deal of attention because of its application to nuclear reactor technology. The majority of the work done in this area considered ideal geometries such as nozzles, orifices and straight pipes. In the area of control valves very little work has been done. Brockett & King [1] studied subcooled water. Stiles [2] looked at subcooled freon. Martinec [4] compared subcooled freon in valves with ideal geometries. Sheldon & Schuder [3) looked experimentally at airjwater mixtures through valves that resulted in a sizing procedure. Fagerlund [10] presented an analytical model that required use of the Sheldon & Schuder data to establish the behavior of valves as opposed to more ideal geometries. However, the data used was limited to a single valve travel. Fagerlund & Storer [11] have expanded this to include several valve travels that further generalizes the technique. It is the intent of this paper to summarize a practical approach to s1z1ng valves for two-phase service that may be reduced to either a graphical or calculator procedure. Discussion of Analysis A fundamental assumption in this method is that the quality remains constant between the inlet and the vena contracta. For gas-liquid flows it is obvious providing vaporization does not occur.
