Question:

Why can't the pressure measuring point be set at the two ends of the gate valve when measuring the resistance loss of the gate valve?

Why can't the pressure measuring point be set at the two ends of the gate valve when measuring the resistance loss of the gate valve?

Answer:

the valve before the pressure measuring point, distance of valve straight pipe length is 5 times the diameter of the valve after the pressure valve, the distance is 10 times the diameter of straight pipe length.
In the standard JB/T5296-1991 "universal valve flow coefficient and the flow resistance coefficient test method",
Because of the unsteady flow of fluid near the inlet and outlet of the valve, the measured data cannot be obtained relatively accurately.
