Dynamic Characteristics of Check Valves
Improper sizing of check valves results in check valve slam, a phenomenon that produces undue increase in pressure head due rapid decrease in reverse flow velocity associated with check valve closure. Check valves are placed in pipe systems to prevent flow reversal. However, most check valves require a finite time to activate after sensing flow reversal and the flow could …
