Valve Testing Facility

A unique testing facility for valves is being used to test the valves for leakage. It consists of a chamber on which the valve is placed with rubber sealing. The chamber is pressurised to say 4 bars and solenoid valve goes off and timer starts. After say 12 seconds pressure drops to some level say 3 bars depending on the valve size and manufacturing quality. According to size , design of valves and size of chamber, the accepted standards have been created . Every valve is checked before packing on this Test Rig.

Design and Analysis capability of valves

The promoters are highly qualified engineers with extensive R&D and manufacturing/servicing experience. A special software for design and analysis reciprocating compressor valves has been developed by one of the promoters . The input to software consists of compressor parameters , valve parameters , as well as atmospheric conditions . Three differential equations which consist of thermodynamic model , valve spring mass characteristic and variable valve gap and flow equation make a complete mathematical model for valve design and analysis. The output of software consists of valve losses as a percent of adiabatic power , valve lift graph verses crank angle , valve plate velocity verses crank angle and valve plate verses crank angle. With these output parameters , satisfactory life of valve parts such as valve plates and springs can be ensured. Also field failure analysis can also be done and improvements could be suggested for life enhancement.
