In this study, a study was conducted to improve the reliability of the valve by developing a valve leakage and reliability measurement system designed to secure the high quality and reliability of the butterfly valve. The system measuring the torque required for valve opening and closing operation, and was configured to operate after multiple opening and closing of the valve to check for leakage of the valve. Finally, a system that can perform efficient work in terms of productivity was developed by enabling leak inspection, torque measurement, and reliability inspection through one integrated system.

Butterfly valves have been used to control the flow rate of various fluids in many industries because it have unique manageability compare to other valves. However, when a defect occurs due to the failure of the backlash of the power transmission part and the pin breakage of the butterfly valve due to the absence of the design capability of the valve, it is difficult to analyze the cause and maintain it. In this paper, a study was conducted to secure the reliability of the valve by performing structural analysis and analysis using a 3D model of the product to manufacture a high-quality valve.

Flow visualization of Butterfly valve is tested five cases(15°, 30°, 45°, 60° and 90°) of vlave opening angle. Measurement by the PIV(Particle Image Velocimetry) was conducted to investigate the flow characteristics of butterfly valve about discharge of dam.. Flow behaviors such as instantaneous and time-mean velocity vectors are investigated each cases. The results from flow visualization using PIV through the video which do not contain a cavitation phenomenon was confirmed in accordance with the valve opening. Performs valve opening and the flow properties of the Karman vortex generated by the frequency analysis is 90° was calculated the frequency of the butterfly valve applied to the actual dam. Butterfly valve for the emergency discharge valve is susceptible to cavitation caused by the valve opening 90° and repeat the cycle in the valve side of the vortex emission system is a high possibility of damage due to fatigue.

The objective of this study is to calculate flow characteristics and structural safety for triple offset eccentric butterfly valve. The triple offset butterfly valve used in this study was 600mm in size, and the opening angles were 30 degree, 60degree and 90 degree. Structural and flow analysis of triple offset eccentric butterfly valve are carried out by using commercial code ANSYS and CFX version 14. The flow coefficient, Kv, increases as the valve opening increases. The results from fluid structure coupled analysis, maximum equivalent stress was calculated 462.06MPa at opening angle 60 degree

The triple eccentric butterfly valve has metal sheet and this study about butterfly valve ceiling is an innovative approach. But it is affected by the static pressure as well as cross-current. The damage at the valve on the pipe resulted from the reflux is due to valve leakage. This study is investigated on the triple eccentric disk and it is applied with angle and the static pressure in all cases to develop cross-current triple eccentric butterfly valves. The disc with the diameter of 300A is valve against flow velocity. The entrance pressure by flow characteristics is performed with numerical analysis. As the result, valve torque production is reduced more than the conventional triple eccentric valve and entrance pressure is decreased on the increase of valve open angle. And flow coefficient can be known to be increased.

버터플라이 밸브는 선박에서 냉각수와 유류 계통 등에 범용으로 널리 사용되고 있다. 이 연구에서는 유량조정에 따른 배관계통의 버터플라이밸브 후류 유동특성을 규명하기 위하여 입자영상 유속측정장치를 이용하여 밸브개도에 따른 유선과 속도벡터 분포에 관한 정량적인 데이터를 확보하였다. 또한 밸브 주위 유동장의 압력성분을 고찰하기 위하여 개폐각도를 6가지 경우로 변화시켜 정압을 측정하였다. 그 결과 실험관 벽면에서 측정된 압력의 분포는 디스크가 전개 상태인 0˚에서 45˚까지는 입구 압력은 일정한 상태로 거의 변화하지 않았으나 약 60˚ 이상에서부터 압력 상승과 점차 급격한 변동현상이 나타났다. 특히, 75˚ 부근에서는 상류에서 급격한 압력 상승 경향을 보인 반면 하류 측은 압력변동이 적게 나타났다.

밸브는 선박에서 유체의 흐름과 유량을 제어하기 위해 사용된다. 유량 계수는 밸브의 설계에서 매우 중요한 요소이다. 본 연구에서는 상용프로그램인 CFX의 3차원 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 이용하여 동일한 유속이 적용될 경우 밸브의 형과 밸브 열림 각도에 따른 유량 계수를 계산하였다. 그리고 실험 결과와 비교하여 CFX 시뮬레이션 해석을 통해 얻은 결과의 신뢰성을 검증하였다.
