FOR OPEN / CLOSED APPLICATION

• RISING SPINDLE
OCCUPIES MORE SPACE, a) CANNOT BE USED FOR
USED FOR CORROSIVE FOR FLOW REGULATION
FLUIDS ) b) VERY LOW PRESSURE
• NON RISING SPINDLE DROP
C) HEAVY & BULKY
d) OPENING / CLOSING -
TAKES LONGER TIME
e) IN HVAC N0RMALLY
NON RISING SPINDLE
IS USED
NOW A DAYS GATE VALVE IS LOOSING POPULARITY

REVERSE FLOW APPLICATION
GLOBE VALVE a) HIGH PRESSURE DROP
b) CAN BE OPERATED FASTER
THAN GATE VALVES
c) USED FOR FLOW BALANCING

NON RETURN OR CHECK VALVES

THERE ARE GENERALLY OF SWING CHECK DESIGN,
PROTECTS REVERSE FLOW - SWING CHECK CAN BE
INSTALLED IN VERTICAL OR HORIZONTAL PIPE.

 WATER LIFTING APPLICATION
CASE A :- WHEN PUMP IS ON, WATER FLOWS FROM LEVEL - 1
TO LEVEL - 2. IF POWER FAILS, WATER HEAD Hd WILL
ROTATE THE IMPELLER REVERSE.
CASE B :- CHECK VALVE ON PUMP DISCHARGE ,
THERE IS NO SUCH POSSIBILITY.

 BUTTER FLY VALVES - WAFER TYPE

IS INSTALLED BETWEEN A PAIR OF FLANGE

 USED FOR ON/OFF APPLICATION.

 CAN BE USED FOR THROLLTING, IF PROPERLY SIZED.
 CAN BE OPENED OR CLOSED BY A QUARTER TURN,
HENCE MUCH FASTER.
 LESS HEAVY & BULKY. IS VERY CONVENIENT
FOR LARGER PIPES.
 ECONOMIC

THREADED ENDS A) IN EXPENSIVE
B) EASY TO INSTALL
C) USED FOR SMALLER

 SOLUTION
1. THIS IS AN OPEN PIPING SYSTEM. REFER TO PIPE
SIZING CHART FOR OPEN SYSTEM.
1200 GPM, 8” PIPE, 3.8 FT/100FT & 7.7 FPS
2. TOTAL EQUIVALENT LENGTH
a) STRAIGHT PIPE
= 10+85+12+12+2+8+20+99+21+8 = 277 RFT
b) ELBOWS, 8” DIA x 8 NOS = 13 RFT/EACHx8 = 104 RFT
c) PUMP DISCHARGE,
REDUCER, 6”DIAx1 = 10 RFT/EACHx1 = 10 RFT
d) GATE VALVES,8” DIA x 2 = 9 RFT/EACHx2 = 18 RFT

VALVES
 SOLUTION

e) SWING CHECK VALVE

8” DIA x 1 = 80 RFT/EACHx1 = 80 RFT

TOTAL EQUIVALENT LENGTH = 489 RFT

PIPE FRICTION
LOSS = 489 x 3.8/100
= 18.58 FT

VALVES
 SUMMARY
a) PIPE FRICTION = 26.0 FT
b) STATIC LIFT ( TOWER ) = 12.0 FT
c) STRAINER = 9.2 FT ( 4 x 2.3 )
d) CONDENSER = 29.9 FT (13 x 2.3 )
e) COOLING TOWER = 18.4 FT ( 8 x 2.3 )

TOTAL HEAD ACROSS PUMP = 95.5 FT
