Abstract
The gravimetric measuring method incurs errors and uncertainties in calibration, originating from various sources, with the diverter valve being one of the most significant. For optimal operation, the output flow from the diverter valve should form a jet in a thin, rectangular sheet form to ensure a low uncertainty value. The current work explores different scenarios in the configuration of an upstream diverter valve installation to determine its effect on velocity profile and flow path line at the nozzle outlet. The analysis is conducted using CFD Fluent edition 2023, varying operational conditions and nozzle geometry. In the results section, a pressure drop along the nozzle at different velocities as well as uniformity in velocities vectors and pressure magnitude at outlet nozzle, are presented.
