Final Flashcards
Which one of the following control valve characteristic is recommended if the control valve pressure drop is constant?
Linear
Relative density for a gas is defined as a dimension value that expresses the ratio of the density of the flowing fluid to the density of a refernce gas as the same temperature and pressure reference condition
B) False
The common rule-of-thumb used in sizing a modern control valve is:
make the size of the control valve one size smaller than the line size
Which one of the following measures can be determined by measuring the the difference in fluid pressure upstream and downstream of the orifice plate?

Gas flows are most often measured and expressed in terms of
volume unit
Which one of the following Equation Constant be used, if sizing the control valve for a gas flow rate in volumetric units and only if the specific gravity is known
N7
The General Flow Equations are capable to the measurement of all clear, singlephase, and homogeneous Newtonian fluids with pipe Reynolds Number >= 4000
True
The pipe Reynolds Number is a dimension ratio of forces used to correlate the variations in discharge coefficient with the chnages in fluid properties, flow rate, and orifice meter geometry.
False
When a fluid passes through a control valve, the pressure is lowest:
where the velocity of fluid is highest
The Bernoulli coefficients are used only when the inlet piping diameter to a valve is equal to the outlet piping diameter.
False
The mass and volume flow rate equations depends on the density of the fluid.
