A simple method for high-precision evaluation of valve flow coefficient by computational fluid dynamics simulation

Flow coefficient is an important performance index associated with the energy efficiency of a valve, and an effective method to evaluate valve flow coefficient is necessary for valve industry. However, theoretical estimation often results in poor accuracy, while experimental measurements involve sig...
