Characteristics of Disc Valves in Angle-Valve Type Chambers : Experimental Research on Disc Valves, 5th Report

Abstract

In an angle-valve type valve box specially prepared a series of experiments were carried out on disc valves with flat-or conical-seat under a head of about two meters. Thus the relations between valve lift, discharge and lifting force were studied, whereby many factors in the characteristics of disc valves under these conditions were made clear.
