New research may take the current 'gold standard' for heart valves to a new level of reliability. A team of researchers has developed a way to improve overall blood flow through the valves, so the ...

Scaling is one of the most frequently occurring problems in geothermal power plants and can prohibit the control of well flow if it builds in the well or wellhead. At HS Energy on the Reykjanes ...

Turbine bypass valves are one of the most difficult applications in a power plant. Keeping these valves operating efficiently and avoiding unexpected failures is critical for plant operation. When ...

Engineers at Sandia National Laboratory are working on designs for next-generation solar plants that capture solar energy by heating and liquifying chloride salt, which then gets stored and ...

New ZL Series proportional flow control valves from HydraForce Inc. (Lincolnshire, IL) are internally pressure-compensated and operate in two directions. "The valves provide identical flow vs current ...

Following last week's report Valve is working on a new iteration of its brilliant (if divisive) Steam Controller, a fresh leak has offered what might well be a first look at its refreshed design - and ...

• The first step in selecting a valve is determining its function. • Review Cv or pressure drop when considering one valve versus another. • Don’t overlook maintenance requirements when specifying a ...

The intricacies of airflow dynamics through a cylinder head are some of the most difficult concepts to grasp in all of hot rodding. That made it the perfect topic to discuss in the inaugural ...
