Definition

Thermal Binding Thermal binding takes place when a valve cools and the body shrinks more than the seated disc. The disc becomes, “bound” and may remain unserviceable until high temperature is re-obtained.

Define, ”thermal binding.” 62

FLOW

FLOW

Upstream

Downstream Define, “thermal binding.”

Thermal Binding

Gate Valves Preventing thermal binding • After closing the valve, back off the stem a ¼ of a turn to allow for stem expansion • Install a bypass pipe and valve on the inlet and outlet sides of the body. This will allow warm up of both sides of the wedge

Define, “thermal binding.” 63


Introduction

Definition

Pressure Locking Pressure locking occurs when the pressure in the body cavity of a closed valve increases or when the pressure in the body bonnet area becomes higher than line pressure. The pressure forces the disc tightly into the valve seats, making the valve difficult to open.

Define, ”thermal binding.”

Title

Gate Valves Pressure Locking • Occurs when there is pressure in the body cavity.

• Temperature in the valve bonnet may increase in response to heat up during plant operation, ambient air temperature rise due to leaking components or pipe breaks. • The bonnet pressure could decrease by leakage past the seating surfaces or stem packing. • If this does not occur, the depressurization time may be longer than the needed time to operate the valve.

Define, “pressure locking.” 64


Pressure Locking

Gate Valves • Higher bonnet pressure causes the body to expand, moving the seats apart. • The stem pushes the disc further down and it “locks” into the seat.

Define, “pressure locking.”

Pressure Locking

Gate Valves Solutions: • Cycling the valve during start-up • Installing a pressure release system of the body cavity • Installing a automatic relief valve or a manual drain • Drilling an internal hole in the wedge face

Define, “pressure locking.” 65


Gate Valves

Problems and Causes

Valve doesn’t open or shut on demand Physical blockage, corrosion, broken actuator, broken stem, pressure locking, thermal binding

Valve partially strokes but doesn’t reach desired position Excessive stem load due to packing or seat friction, high stem to stem-nut friction, actuator problems

Identify at least one likely cause for each given problem associated with a gate valve.

Gate Valves

Problems and Causes

Packing leakage Normal packing wear, incorrect packing set, inadequate packing consolidation

Seat leakage Foreign material, seat/disc damaged, seat/disc repaired wrong, insufficient stem thrust

Body to bonnet leakage Wrong bolt torqueing, scratched sealing surface, wrong seal used, seal not properly installed

Identify at least one likely cause for each given problem associated with a gate valve. 66


Gate Valves

Problems and Causes

Pressure locking Pressure between discs or in bonnet much higher than up or downstream

Thermal binding Differential expansion and contraction between disc and body

Excessive packing friction Over tightened packing gland nuts, cocked packing gland follower

Bent or broken stem or disc attachment Excessive closing force applied, weak-link design calculation wrong

Identify at least one likely cause for each given problem associated with a gate valve.

Positioners

3-15 psi pneumatic valve positioner • Normally used in conjunction with a separate I/P (Current to Pneumatic) Converter, which is old technology • Most users have changed to electro-pneumatic positioners, eliminating separate I/P converters • Some manufacturers offer a built-in I/P Converter. It is basically a pneumatic positioner with an internal I/P.

Control Accessories

Positioners

4-20mA electro-pneumatic valve positioner • Built-in I/P Converter - basically a pneumatic positioner with an internal I/P. • Internal Electronics compares 4-20mA input signal with internal position feedback – normally received from a potentiometer or hall effect sensor • It then positions the actuator so that the two signals are equal

Identify various types of Control Accessories

Control Accessories

Positioners

Digital valve positioner • Divided into two categories: hybrid and fully digital. •

•

Hybrid positioners use an analog current signal command signal while superimposing over that signal a frequency that allows for bi-directional communications (HART Protocol) For fully digital positioners, the command signal is provided in a binary form that is coded and decoded by a communication protocol. (FOUNDATION Fieldbus and Profibus PA Protocols)

• Readily collect data about the valve to automatically alert users about how the valve and its assembly are performing to aid in diagnostics and maintenance

Check Valves

Swing Check • Opened and sustained in the open position by the force of velocity pressure, and closed by the force of gravity. • Seating load and resultant tightness is dependent upon back pressure. • Potential for water hammer • Minimum flow or velocity is required to fully open the disc

Valve Sizing

Check Valves

Swing Check • The minimum velocity required to hold a swing check valve in the wide open and stable position is expressed by the formula: • Sizing swing check valves on this basis may often result in the use of valves that are smaller than the pipe in which they are used, necessitating the use of reducers for installation.

253

• The minimum velocity required to hold a tilt disc check valve in the wide open and stable position is expressed by the formula: 80

Valve Sizing

Check Valves

Stop Check • Stop Check Valves are as essential to safe operation of a boiler plant as safety valves or other safety devices attached to the boiler. • When more than one boiler is connected to the main steam header, a stop check valve should be installed in the pipeline between each boiler and the header. • Valve designed for steam application that operate between 100 psi (9 bar) and 375 psi (26 bar). • The Stop Check feature of this valve requires a minimum of 50 psi (3.5 bar) pressure differential between the piping system and the boiler to operate correctly. 254

Engineered Check Valves

Engineered Check uses a sizing program to optimize the spring assist to the customer’s applications. The opportunity to use the sizing program as a selling tool should not missed or under-estimated. By correctly sizing the valve we can benefit the customer by: ͻ Reduce wear / Improved valve life ͻ Minimise reverse velocity (less waterhammer) ͻ Protect the pumping equipment ͻ Reduce pressure loss / Savings on running costs ͻ Educate the customer about our Check Valves.

Valve Sizing

Check Valve

Spring assisted Dual Plate check valves (Duo-Chek®) • Design offering slimmer plates with less inertia than a single thicker disc (as in the Swing check type) • Spring pre-loading provides additional closing force at all angles • Enhanced response time as well as more reactive to changes in flow conditions

Valve Sizing

Check Valve

Nozzle check valves (Noz-Chek® & Compac-Noz®) • As flow decelerates, the spring overcomes decaying fluid force on the disc and triggers the valve to close • Low disc mass combined with spring loading and short displacement ensures rapid selfdampening response • Fastest response time, slam free and with minimal reverse velocity 257
