Control Valve Sizing & Operation for Process Engineers

Description

So may be you are a chemical engineer and you need to discover the considerations and common practices we should consider when placing a control valve in our process?

If this is what you are looking for, then you have come to the right place!

Control valves are vital in various industries, such as oil and gas and chemical processing plants. They are responsible for controlling more than 95% of process parameters.

In this course, we shall:

• Explore the functions and operation of control valves

• Delve into the concept of the control valve Cv (flow coefficient) and its importance in sizing and rating control valves

• Cover inherent and installed characteristics of control valves and how the plant's configuration affects their performance

• Explain the differences between inherent and installed characteristics

• Learn when to use a butterfly valve as a control valve and understand how the valve's design impacts its behavior

• Guide you through the valve sizing procedure and assist in choosing the appropriate control valve for various scenarios

• Provide practical examples and calculations to illustrate the concepts

• Receive an Excel sheet for future reference

• Understand how to calculate pressure drop in control valves and select the right cases for valve sizing

• Learn how the entire hydraulic system interacts and discover methods to overcome bottlenecks in the system

• Explore control valve considerations in a Piping and Instrumentation diagram (P&ID)

• Gain insights into isolation techniques and safety issues related to control valve failure scenarios

So are you ready to start this interesting journey?

Looking forward to having you in the course and getting started!
