Gate valves are machine elements which are commonly used to control the flow of fluids as gate valve provides a positive sealing at high pressure of liquids and gases. Gate valves are used when a straight-line flow of fluid and minimum restriction is desired. Gate valves are so named because the part that either stops or allows flow of fluid through the valve acts somewhat like the opening or closing of a gate and is called, appropriately, the gate. The objective of this paper is to focus the design and analysis of critical components of Gate Valve. The critical components in the Gate Valve studied by many of the researchers are Body, Gate Stem and slab gate. The main purpose of design and analysis of any valve is to determine stresses and strains developed in the valve body, which is mostly done by using computer aided software tools. This paper gives detailed review on various techniques adopted by several researchers in the design and analysis of Gate valve. Generally, elements of Gate Valve are developed in CATIA and analyzed in ANSYS. Specially, Gate valve stress analysis is carried out by FEM using ANSYS which can be further validated and supported by stress analysis using classical theory of mechanics. |
