Numerical Analysis to the Effect of Guiding Plate on Flow Characteristics in a Ball Valve

When internal flows go through a valve with a small opening degree, high-speed jet flows are induced, which causes the erosion of the valve core and affects the stability of the flow field. Setting guiding plates in the valve behind the valve core has the function of reducing the adverse effect of h...
