Abstract
This article discusses the decrease in flow capacity of valves and nozzles as the temperature of the flowing liquid increases. It was found that the mass flow capacities of both, valves and nozzles will typically decrease to one-third of their value when going from a highly subcooled liquid flow to saturated liquid flow. Test results of subcooled and saturated liquid flow through industrial valves and nozzles are presented. A new mass flow rate model for flow capacity prediction of valves and nozzles exposed to subcooled and saturated liquid flow is developed.
