2 Chapter 3 Control Valves and Dampers 2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter Slide 2
3 Control Valves Important component of fluid distribution systems Regulate the flow of fluid to the process under control Common types: Globe valves (for modulating) Ball valves (less expensive) Butterfly valves (for isolation) Valve material Bronze, cast iron, steel 2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter Slide 3
4 Control valve components [Source: Honeywell, Engineering Manual of Automatic Control: for Commercial Buildings] 2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter Slide 4
5 2-Way and 3-Way Valve Circuits 2-way control valve Mixing 3-way control valve Diverting 3-way control valve 2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter Slide 5
6 2-Way and 3-Way Valves 2-way: for variable flow More sensitive to high differential pressure Harder to close off against line pressure 3-way: for constant flow Actuator does not need to be as powerful 2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter Slide 6
7 Advantages of 2-Way Valves Less expensive to buy and install Result in variable flow which reduces pumping energy Reduced piping heat losses and pump energy Potentially lower costs for pumping and distribution systems System balancing is reduced or eliminated 2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter Slide 7
8 Disadvantages of 2-Way Valves Most chillers and some boilers cannot handle widely varying flow rates Differential pressures will increase across control valves, reducing system controllability 2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter Slide 8

22 Flow coefficient: ρ A V = q ΔP q = volume flow (m 3 /s) ρ= fluid density (kg/m 3 ) ΔP = static pressure loss across the valve (Pa) For different units and locations, C V and K V are used. For valve used in water application: ρ K V = Q ΔP 10 Q = volume flow (m 3 /h) [Source: Honeywell, Engineering Manual of Automatic Control: for Commercial Buildings] 2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter Slide 22
23 Flow coefficient Close-off rating: Control Valve Ratings The maximum pressure drop that a valve can withstand without leakage while in the full closed position Pressure drop: The difference in upstream and downstream pressures of the fluid flowing through the valve Maximum pressure and temperature: The maximum pressure and temperature limitations of fluid flow that a valve can withstand 2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter Slide 23
24 Location of Control Valves At the outlet on the top of cooling/heating coils Avoid coil starvation from water flow (lower pressure) Flow of water from the bottom to the top (avoid air bubble) Flow measuring & balancing device should be placed after the control valve Provide a means of shut-off to allow a proper means for servicing 2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter Slide 24

29 3-Way Mixing Valves 2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter Slide 29
30 Flow Through 3-Way Valve 2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter Slide 30
31 Selecting & Sizing Valves Control valve selection depends on: The fluid being controlled Valve style: 2-way or 3-way Control mode: modulating or 2-position Maximum fluid temperature Maximum inlet pressure Desired flow characteristic Maximum fluid flow rate Desired pressure drop when valve is full open Turn-down ratio Close-off pressure 2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter Slide 31
32 Coil Subsystem 2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter Slide 32
33 Representative Values of C v 2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter Slide 33
34 Flow Characteristic Selection The desired flow characteristic is a function of: The heat transfer device being controlled and its flow versus capacity characteristic The control of fluid supply temperature The control of the differential pressure across the valve 2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter Slide 34
35 Capacity Versus Flow Rate 2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter Slide 35

38 Pump & System Curves With Valve Control 2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter Slide 38
39 Control Dampers For controlling air distribution, such as Fire damper: A thermally actuated damper arranged to automatically restrict the passage of fire and/or heat at a point where an opening violates the integrity of a fire partition or floor Smoke damper: A damper arranged to control passage of smoke through an opening or a duct Volume control damper (VCD): A device used to regulate the flow of air in an HVAC system 2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter Slide 39
40 Control Dampers Common types: Opposed blade dampers (e.g. in AHU) Parallel blade dampers Butterfly dampers (e.g. in VAV box) Linear air valves (e.g. in fume hood) Specialty dampers 2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter Slide 40
