CEE 320 Fluid Mechanics Lab Head Loss Through a Valve April 24‚ 2012 Abstract This experiment determined the relationship between the head loss through a gate valve and the degree of opening of that valve with varying flow rates. The objective of this experiment was to determine the valve loss coefficient‚ K‚ for a specific gate valve as a function of both the pipe Reynolds Number‚ and the degree of opening. The relationship between the Reynolds Number and the friction factor was

together to achieve a common goal or outcome. When there are divergent views in an organization‚ politicization can occur‚ as politics are an inevitable part of corporate life. Valve aims to structure its organization around being a democracy‚ where everyone has a say in what happens in the company. One can however also describe Valve as a technocracy‚ in which power or stance is linked to technological skill and competency. This is usually characteristic of a flexible firm. This metaphor describes a phenomena

The heart functions by pumping blood both to the lungs and to the systems of the body. To prevent blood from flowing backwards or “regurgitating” back into the heart‚ a system of one-way valves are present in the heart. The heart valves can be broken down into two types: atrioventricular and semilunar valves. Atrioventricular valves. The atrioventricular (AV) valves are located in the middle of the heart between the atria and ventricles and only allow blood to flow from the atria into the ventricles

Mitral Valve aka Bicuspid Valve Human Anatomy & Physiology II The left atrioventricular valve‚ with two cusps‚ is called the mitral valve because it resembles the two-sided bishops miter or hat. It is sometimes called the biscuspid valve. (Marieb & Hoehn‚ 2007). This valve separates the left atrium of the heart from the left ventricle of the heart. It prevents the back flow of oxygenated blood to the pulmonary circuit. Heart valves are simple devices‚ and the heart – like any

6. The Mitral valve or tricuspid valve is leaking. The sloshy sound will be heard during the atrial systole. The dub is heard during the ventricular diastole. The chordae tendinae‚ or heart strings‚ support the atrioventricular valve because the heart strings connects the papillary muscles to the tricuspid and mitral valve. 7. The difference between a quintuple bypass surgery and an open heart valve surgery is that the quintuple heart surgery is an open heart surgery‚in which your chest gets crack

DESIGN OPTIMIZATION OF ENGINE VALVE (PROFILE RADIUS AND DISH PARAMETER) Objective: The main object of this project is to reduce the material from profile radius and dish parameter. This project mainly concentrates on design and analysis of stress‚ buckling analysis‚ fatigue analysis‚ heat treatment condition on wear resistance and comparing the results with the current valve results. Introduction: In order to save material several design principles are explained. These are derived from
