Abstract

In this paper, incompressible and compressible flow characteristics around the butterfly valve have been investigated. In order to simplify the problem, a flat disk valve with various valve disk angles and pressure ratios is considered in the present calculations. It was found that as the disk angle increases, the stagnation point on the front surface of the disk moves to the center of the surface and the inflow velocity decreases. The maximum flow velocity occurs at the downstream of throat because of the formation of vents contracta. As the pressure ratio decreases, compressibility effects increase and the jet formed between the throttle body wall and the disk edge becomes supersonic. This flow also builds up as a shock cell structure. The increase of disk angle and pressure ratio makes the mass flow at the inlet decrease, while the increase of disk angle and the decrease of pressure ratio make the pressure loss coefficient increase.

본 연구에서는 butterfly valve주위의 비압축성 및 압축성유동 특성을 수치해석을 통하여 조사하였다. 밸브는 문제를 단순화시키기 위하여 평판 디스크로 간주하였으며, 다양한 디스크 각도 및 압력비 변화에 대한 계산을 수행하였다. 각도가 증가함에 따라 디스크 상류면의 정체점은 디스크의 중심으로 이동하는 것을 볼 수 있었고, 입구공기의 유입 속도는 감소함을 볼 수 있었다. 최고 유속은 디스크와 벽면사이에 형성되는 vena contracta 효과에 의해 생기는 목의 하류에서 형성됨을 볼 수 있었다. 압력비를 감소함에 따라 압축성 효과는 증대되며 유동이 초음속화 되면서 생성되는 강한 wall jet에 의해 shock cell structure가 형성되는 것을 볼 수 있었다. 입구유량은 디스크 각도와 압력비의 증가에 따라서 감소하며, 압력손실계수는 디스크 각도의 증가 및 압력비의 감소에 따라 증가하였다.
