TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the CFD-DEM simulation method to study the gas-solid two-phase flow characteristics and erosion characteristics of the gate valve, and the accuracy of the simulation was validated by comparing the simulation and experimental data.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of the V-angle on valve performance and internal flow properties via experiments and numerical simulations was investigated, and it was shown that an increase in either Vangle or valve opening causes a large pressure fluctuation near the valve outlet, thus leading to a long pressure-stable distance.

TL;DR: In this paper, the throttling effect caused by flow regulation with the sleeve valve was considered in the context of positional relation between the swirlmeter and the valve, to compare the metrological performance under various operating conditions (including flow velocities and valve openings).

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented the CFD analysis of flow resistance characteristics and the internal flow characteristics of gate valve in a gate valve with different inlet velocities, and concluded that it is not stable before the relative opening degree 2/8.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the effect of a straight transition pipeline length upstream of a swirl flowmeter on the evolving characteristics of the vortex inflow by conducting numerical simulation under flow regulation parameters, including valve openings and flow velocities.
