Abstract

Gate valves are machine elements which are commonly used to control the flow of volatile, often toxic, liquids and gases and keep them from being emitted into the atmosphere or spilled on the ground or into the water. This gate valve is widely used in various industries like refineries, petrochemical complexes, fertilizer plants, power generation plants (hydro - electric, thermal and nuclear) steel plants and allied industries etc. for a various process. This paper gives basic methodology of gate valve body design by using cad technologies and FEA at maximum operating pressure. The main purpose is structural analysis to be carried out for determining stresses and strains developed in the valve body. Keywords: gate valve body, structural analysis, FEA.
