Control Valve Sizing Program


Hunt & Mitton's Control Valve Sizing Program is managed from our UK design office. Our unique program has been used for thousands of control valve calculations and has proven to be reliable in the field at predicting fluid behavior in numerous applications.

We require from our customers the accurate data of fluid, flow rate, inlet conditions and pressure, and the required outlet conditions. We will do the rest and guarantee an optimized process performance to maximize the profitability of the plant.

To ensure that a control valve will successfully work with hazardous chemicals such as chlorine, phosgene and other dangerous fluids, the following must be considered to ensure zero leakage to atmosphere over the life of the valve:
·Choice of materials
·Design of components and engineering tolerances
·Availability of trim variations for a wide range of fluid conditions
·Choice of accessories to assist with control systems and requirements
·An intimate knowledge of the geometry of the flow path through the valve body and the affect the trim will have on flowrates leading to Cv values.
