The influence of spring brackets at both ends of the control valve on its performance
Thread Content
For some large-diameter pipelines with relatively high pressure and temperature, it is inevitable that the control valve assemblies are supported by spring brackets, and the springs at both ends have different vertical displacements. Have you encountered such a situation in your work? What adverse effects might such a support method have on the performance of the control valve? Everyone is welcome to join the discussion.
The support method has no adverse effect on the operating performance of the control valve. .
In my opinion, large-diameter control valves generate vibration during their operation; this is especially true when dealing with media at high temperatures and when the valve is opened to a small degree. In such cases, the vibration in the pipeline is significant. Installing shock-absorbing springs can reduce this vibration, thereby protecting both the pipeline and the control valve and enabling it to function properly.
