Control valve

Cv / throttling

A throttling valve characterised by its flow coefficient Cv (or Kv). It imposes a pressure drop that varies with opening and flow.

Cv / KvFlow coefficient at the modelled opening.
Opening %Optional — scales Cv along the valve characteristic.
คำนวณอย่างไร

We use the ISA-75.01 / IEC 60534 master sizing equation: the flow coefficient Cv relates flow to the pressure drop and specific gravity. Inverted, it gives the ΔP the valve imposes, which enters the network energy balance.

ISA-75.01 master equation
G_f = liquid specific gravity, N₁ = unit constant (1.00 for Cv in US gpm·psi, 0.0865 for Kv in m³/h·kPa). Cv = 1.156·Kv.
Pressure drop across the valve
The imposed drop rises with the square of flow and falls with Cv² — closing the valve (lower Cv) raises ΔP.
