Globe Valves

Globe valves are used to start, stop, and regulate fluid flow via a disc that is moved into the fluid flow. They are frequently used in applications where fluid modulation…

Needle Valves

Needle valves, sometimes called plunger valves, enable engineers to control and regulate subtle flow and pressure changes. The needle valve’s stem provides precise control by moving a piston tube open…

Gate Valves

Gate Valves are used to completely shut off or provide full flow in a pipeline. The valve opens by lifting a barrier in the path of the fluid and allowing…

Ball Valves

Ball valves are the most common type of valve used in the process industry. While frequently used for small line flow control and commodity applications, ball valves can also be…

Minor Losses in Pipes

Minor losses in pipes stem from a divergence in flow direction, diameter change, and the presence of disturbances. They do not include frictional (major) losses, which are the result of…
