Durco Control Valves
Preface
This manual on control valve sizing brings together the mathematical tools required to select Durco
valves properly for control valve applications. The equations presented for liquids, gases, and steam are
based on the ISA standard S75.01 and are divided into sections to simplify manual calculation for the
more common sizing problems. Examples of each type are presented for further comprehension. The
selection of a correct valve size as mathematically determined depends on accurate knowledge of the
actual flowing data. Frequently, one or more of the operating conditions are arbitrarily assumed. Most
errors in control valve sizing are due to incorrect assumptions. Generally speaking, the tendency is to
make the valve too large to be on the "safe side". Combining these so called "safety factors" can result in
a valve which is oversized and one which contributes to poor control and system instability. There is no
substitute for good engineering judgment. Only good common sense combined with experience can bring
forth an acceptable solution in valve sizing. Control valve applications vary in degree from simple to
complex. On occasion, guidance and assistance in selecting the proper control valve may be required.

LIQUID SIZING
Liquid flow through Durco valves may be predicted by using the thermodynamic laws of fluid flow and
the standards established in this manual by the Flowserve Corporation. There are two basic requirements
that must be determined to properly size Durco control valves; first is the Cv required and second is the
allowable pressure drop for a given service and valve.
Proper selection of any control valve requires some basic information that may or may not be readily
available. Ideally, we would like to:
1) Get a general description of what is to be accomplished or a data sheet if possible.
2) Have the following data provided.
a) Inlet pressure.
b) Temperature maximum and minimum.
c) Process fluid.
d) Flow rates - maximum, normal and minimum.
e) Vapor pressure.
f) Pipeline size - schedule and material.
g) Pressure drop - minimum, normal and maximum.
h) Specific gravity.
i) Critical pressure.
The following formulae shall be used in sizing Durco Valves.
1-1.0
Cv=
P
S .G.
Where:
Cv = Flow coefficient required.

Q = Flow in gpm.
S.G. = Specific gravity
P = Pressure drop in psi.
Definition: Cv, is numerically equal to the number of U.S. gallons of water that will flow through a valve
in one minute with water at 60OF and a one psi differential pressure across the valve.
1-1.1
Pallow = FL 2(P1-rcPV)
Where:
Pallow = allowable pressure drop in psi.

FL2 = Recovery coefficient from CV chart.
rc = Critical pressure ratio from rc chart.
PV = Vapor pressure in psia.
1-1.2
CV = Q

(for choked flow)
Note: This formula should be used when Pactual Pallow , where: Pactual = P1-P2

DETERMINING THE REQUIRED Cv

Formula 1-1.0 is the general-purpose equation for most liquid sizing applications. This formula utilizes
the actual pressure drop or the inlet pressure minus the outlet pressure, to calculate the required Cv.
Examination of the formula indicates that "if the pressure drop increased, the flow should also increase."
There is, however, a point where further decreases in P2 results in no change in flow rate and is referred to
as "Choked Flow." Therefore, the actual P no longer applies and a maximum Pallow must be substituted
to calculate the required Cv,(equation 1.1.2). Choked flow results from flashing or cavitation and could
cause damage to the valve and/or piping. When solving a liquid sizing application, consider some or all of
the following points to determine if Pallow should be used.
1) If the inlet pressure (P1) is relatively close to the vapor pressure.
2) If the outlet pressure (P2) is relatively close to the vapor pressure.
3) If the actual pressure drop is large when compared to the inlet pressure.
This means that if there is any doubt that the liquid service is in close proximity to choked flow, the
Pallow must be calculated and compared to Pactual (see section on cavitation and flashing beginning on
page 10).
Using a valve smaller than line size will contribute to errors in the required Cv, due to losses caused by
the expanders and reducers. Flowserve has calculated this effect on CV, and printed the results for your
convenience (see Section 2). Should the need arise to calculate the corrected CV, for various
combinations we have supplied a catalog of formulae from ISA Standards.
When an incompressible fluid has a high viscosity and/or low velocity, laminar flow may exist. The CV
previously discussed assumed turbulent flow and must be multiplied by a correction factor (FR) to obtain the
actual flow coefficient. Generally speaking, if the viscosity is less than SAE 10 motor oil (~30cp), this
factor may be neglected.
CV CALCULATIONS PROCEDURE
1) Using the given flow conditions, calculate the CV, using equation 1-1.0.
2) Select a nominal valve size from the sizing charts based on the calculated CV. This CV, value should
generally fall between 20-80% of port opening.
3) Read FL2 value from sizing chart based on the percent of opening at which the valve will operate.
4) Using the FL2 value, calculate the Pallow from equation 1-1.1. The rc value is determined from the
critical pressure ratio charts on page 13.
5) Compare the Pallow to the Pactual if Pallow is greater than the actual pressure drop equation 1-1.0 is
valid. If Pallow is less than actual pressure drop, equation 1-1.2 must be used and flashing exists (see
section on cavitation and flashing beginning on page 10).
6) If viscosity correction is required, use the FR correction procedure.
VISCOSITY CORRECTION
When it is determined that the viscosity is greater than SAE 10 motor oil (30 cp @ 70F), the following
correction should be made (Figure 1).
7
Based on the type of valve selected (plug or butterfly) calculate the Reynolds number using the following
formulae and correct for the effects of laminar flow.
Re = 17,300
Q
v
where:
(for plug valves)

Re = Reynolds number

v = Viscosity, centistokes*
CV = Flow coefficient
Re = 12,283

*(centistokes = centipoise/S.G.)
The correction factor may be obtained from Figure 1.0 the Viscosity Correction Factor chart. Use the
value (FR) and calculate the corrected Cv. Cv (corrected) = FR Cv
EXAMPLES FOR LIQUID SIZING

Example 1
Given information:
Fluid = water
P1 = 150 psig = 14.7 = 164.7 psia
P = 10 psi
8
Q = 50 gpm
T = 193O
PV = 10 psia
S.G. = 1.0
Line size = 1
1) Use equation 1-1.0.

2) Select a nominal valve size from the sizing chart for V-ported valves on page 29.
3) For V-port plug valves, a 1" valve and a 1" line has a maximum Cv of 29.9. The calculated Cv of 15.8
falls in at about 72% of port opening.
4) The FL2 value at 72% opening is approximately 0.65.
5) Calculate Pallow from equation 1-1.1.
Pallow = FL2 (P1 - rC PV)
Where: FL2= 0.65
P1 = 164.7 psia
PV = 10 psia
rC = 0.95 (from rC charts)
Pallow = 0.59 [164.7 - (0.95) (10)] = 100.91 psi
6) Compare the actual pressure drop to the allowable pressure drop.
Pactual = 10 psi
Pallow = 100.91 psi
The actual pressure drop is less than the maximum allowable pressure drop. Therefore, equation 1-1.0 is
valid.
7) Water is less viscous than SAE 10 weight motor oil and the FR factor may be neglected.
Conclusion:
The 1" V-port plug valve would operate at about 72% of full open and
would be a good selection in this example.
Example 2
Given information:
Fluid = Liquid chlorine
P1 = 125 psig + 14.7 = 139.7 psia
P = 75 psi
Q = 150 gpm
T = 60OF
PV = 100 psia
S.G. = 1.42
Line size = 3"

2) Select a nominal valve size from the sizing charts. For V-port plug valves, a 2" valve in a 3" line has a
maximum CV of 52.2. The calculated CV of 20.7 fans in about 60% of port opening.
3) The FL2 value at 60% is approximately .86.
4) Calculate the Pallow from equation 1-1.1.
Pallow = FL2 (P1 - rC PV)
Where: FL2 = .86
P1 = 139.7 psia
PV = 100 psia
rC = 0.87
Note: rC was found by looking up the critical pressure PC and
dividing that value into PV.
PC = 1119 psia
PV = 100 psia
PV/PC = 100/1119 = 0.089
Enter value into graph on page 13, figure 1.3.
Reading vertically rC = 0.87.
Pallow = 0.86 [139.7 - 0.87 (100)] = 45.32 psi
5) Compare the actual pressure drop to the allowable pressure drop.
Pactual = 75 psi
Pallow = 45.32 psi
The allowable pressure drop is less than the actual pressure drop. Therefore, equation 1-1.2 must be used
to calculate the required CV.

= 26.56
Because the allowable pressure drop is less than the actual pressure drop, the required CV increased. The
CV of 26.56 falls in at about 75% of opening indicating that our first selection has enough capacity to
control the process.
Referring to the cavitation and flashing section, the outlet pressure is less than the vapor pressure and
flashing exists. Proper material selection should handle this type of problem, however, if cavitation exists
in a different application consult the Cookeville Valve Operation.
CAVITATION AND FLASHING
We previously stated that there are two basic requirements that must be determined to properly size
control valves. Accuracy has been improved with the introduction of the factor, rC and is called the
10
critical pressure ratio. We can now calculate the point where a liquid will result in choked flow and
calculation of the allowable pressure drop is the technique used for this prediction.
Pallow = FL2 (P1-rCPV)
As a liquid flows through the control valve orifice it restricts the flow and causes the fluid to pick up
velocity. The point where the fluid reaches maximum velocity results in an energy exchange that lowers
the pressure. This point of lowest pressure and highest velocity is referred to as the vena contracta.
FIGURE 1.1
Figure 1.1 shows the flow pattern of the fluid passing through a restriction and depicts what actually
happens to the pressure at the vena contracta. If the vena contracta pressure (PVC) falls below the vapor
pressure, vapor bubbles start to form. When the fluid passes the vena contracta the fluid velocity slows,
thus raising the liquid pressure to some point (P2) less than the inlet pressure. If the outlet pressure (P2)
recovers below the vapor pressure, flashing takes place. If the outlet pressure (P2) recovers above the
vapor pressure, the vapor bubbles will implode and cavitation is present. Cavitation produces noise,
vibration and physical damage to the valve and/or down stream piping.
Therefore, calculation of the allowable pressure drop (Pallow) predicts whether or not the vena contracta
pressure (PVC) will be below the vapor pressure. Avoiding cavitation or flashing means keeping the vena
contracta pressure above the vapor pressure. We have included a flow chart to simplify determination of
the fluid state for your convenience.

proceed vertically to intersect the curve. Read the critical pressure ratio rC on the ordinate by moving
horizontally to the left.
GAS SIZING
Ideal gases and vapors are compressible fluids and require a similar approach to liquid sizing while taking
into account such terms as the compressibility factor (Z), the expansion factor (Y) and the terminal
pressure ratio (Xt). The flow rate (Q) has units of standard cubic feet per hour and care should be taken to
convert your required flow from the compressibility charts in the reference data section beginning on
page 67.
The following formulae will be used to calculate the required flow coefficient for Durco valves.

T = temperature, oR
Fk = Specific heat ratio
Xt = Terminal pressure drop ratio
Z = Compressibility factor
DETERMINING THE REQUIRED Cv
Formula 1-2.0 is the general purpose equation for most gas sizing applications. However, when gases
flow through a restriction they will expand and contract. We stated earlier that gas sizing includes both
expansion and compressibility factors and careful examination of the fluid characteristics is required to
accurately predict flow for gases and vapors.
Formula 1-2.0 is based on the same premise that, as the pressure drop increases so will the flow increase.
There is a point where the flow will choke off. Therefore, the value of Y has been limited 0.667. When Y
can be calculated to be less than 0.667 the gas is at "Choked Flow" and equation 1-2.2 must be used to
determine the required CV.
The compressiblility factor (Z) is a correction factor for gases that deviate from the laws of perfect gases
and effect the accuracy of the CV coefficient. Values of Z may be approximated using the compressibility
charts in the reference data section beginning on page 67.

3) If Y is greater than 0.667 calculate the C, using formula 1-2.0. Based on the degree of opening from the
sizing charts, recheck Y using the actual Xt, and recalculate the Cv.
4) If Y is less than O.667 calculate the CV using formula 1-2.2. Based on the degree of opening from the
sizing charts, recheck Y using the actual Xt and recalculate the CV.
EXAMPLES FOR GAS SIZING

Given information:
Fluid = Air
P1 = 100 psig + 14.7 = 114.7 psia

Fk = 1.4/1.4 = 1.0 (k is found in the reference data section)
Xt = 0.5(starting point)
2) Y is greater than 0.667, therefore, formula 1-2.0 should be used. The value of Z for air is 1.0 found in
the reference data section.

3) The given information showed that the line size was 2". Referring to the sizing chart for the 2" V-port
it is found that the valve would operate at about 67% of full open. The respective Xt, is about 0.53 and
therefore the Cv, would not be affected.

Xt = 0.5
2) The calculated value for Y is less than O.667, therefore use formula 1-2-2. Ethane is not an ideal gas
under the stated pressures and temperatures and Z should be determined using the compressibility charts
in the reference data section.
Critical temperature and critical pressure, T, and P, respectively, were looked up for Ethane in the
physical constants section of reference data.

4) It was given that the line size is 3" and referring to the 3" V-port sizing table on page 29, it is found
that the valve will operate about 60-62% open. The corresponding Xt is about 0.64. Therefore,
rechecking Y and CV, Y is less than 0.667 or at choked flow.

STEAM SIZING
The effects of steam are similar to the previous discussion on gas sizing inasmuch as it also is a
compressible fluid. The flow rate (W), however, is expressed as pounds per hour (lbs/hr) and care should
be taken to convert your required flow to these units. Also see Steam Recommendations, page 62.
The following formulae should be used to calculate the required CV for Durco valves.

the sizing charts beginning on page 29, recheck Y using actual X, and recalculate the CV.
4) If Y is less than 0.667, calculate the CV using formula 1-3.2. Based on the degree of opening, recheck
Y using the actual Xt and recalculate the CV.

the valve would operate at about 72% open. The corresponding Xt, is 0.5 indicating that the CV is correct.
Example 2
Given information:
Fluid = Superheated Steam
P1 = 60 + 14.7 = 74.7 psia
P = 50 psi
T = 350oF
W = 12,000 lbs/hr

Where:
X = 50/74.7 = 0.669
Fk = 1.31/1.4 = 0.936
Xt = 0.5 (starting point)

HYDRODYNAMIC NOISE
In reducing hydrodynamic noise, it is necessary to go to the source (the valve). In order to lower the
sound pressure level, cavitation must be reduced. Cavitation is the result of a liquid being forced
through an orifice, creating a pressure drop which falls below the vapor pressure of the incoming fluid.
The point of lowest pressure is known as the Vena Contracta (see Figure 1). If the Vena Contracta is
below the vapor pressure (the pressure at which a liquid will boil at ambient 62F temperature), flashing
will occur causing the formation of vapor bubbles. As the pressure recovers the atmosphere inside, the
bubble is at a lower pressure than the external liquid surrounding the bubble. This causes the vapor bubble
to collapse. Usually. along the side, in an elbow or nearest fitting in the pipe, depending on the
conditions and type of valve. As the bubble collapses, it usually will remove some material, leaving a
small cavity.
To reduce hydrodynamic noise, flashing/cavitation must be reduced. To reduce noise levels in a fluidic
process, it has to be determined whether or not cavitation exists. This is accomplished by the
following calculations:
Ui - Valve inlet velocity which will create incipient cavitation.
Uc - Valve inlet velocity which will create critical cavitation.
d - Valve inlet diameter, use inside pipe diameter of equivalent schedule 40 pipe. (See
tableA)
Cd - Required Cv/d2
P1 - Inlet Pressure in psia
Pv - Vapor pressure in psia
Ui = Jo x Ji x Jn x Jd

PRESSURE
To accurately size control valves, we must fully understand the various pressure terms used in the instrument
world. The pressure measurement identifications most frequently encountered in valve applications are: absolute
pressure, gauge pressure, vacuum, and differential pressure.
DEFINITIONS:
a) ABSOLUTE PRESSURE -expressed "pounds per square inch absolute," or psia.
b) GAUGE PRESSURE -expressed "pounds per square inch gauge," or psig.
c) VACUUM -is a special case of gauge pressure; i.e., vacuum is negative gauge pressure or any pressure less
than atmospheric pressure.
d) DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE-is the difference between two pressure points in a system and is expressed as
P .
Here are some basic relationships between gauge pressure, absolute pressure and vacuum.
a) absolute pressure = atmospheric pressure + gauge pressure.
b) absolute pressure = atmospheric pressure - vacuum.
c) gauge pressure= -vacuum.
EXAMPLES:
1. Convert 100 psig to absolute
a) Pabs 100 14.7 114.7 at sea level
b) Pabs 100 12.7 112.7 at 4,000 feet
2. Convert 20.36 in Hg Vacuum to psia
a) Pgauge
in Hg 20.36
psig
2.036 2.036 10
Pgauge = -vacuum = -10 psig vacuum

b) Pabs = Patmos vacuum
Pabs = 14.7 10 psig = 4.7 psia at sea level
Pabs = 12.7 10 psig = 2.7 psia at 4,000 feet
3. Convert 100 psia to psig
a) Pabs = Patmos + Pgauge
b) Pgauge = Pabs Patmos
Pgauge = 100 psi 14.7 psia = 85.3 psig at sea level

LIQUID VELOCITY DETERMINATION

FIGURE 5.0
*Multiply velocity head value from chart by liquid specific gravity if specific gravity is other than one.
NOTE: The internal diameter of the various pipe schedules may be found by noting the intersection of the
diagonal line representing the nominal size of pipe with the vertical line representing the pipe schedule, then projecting
horizontally to the D-scale.

Durco Teflon Seated Valves for Steam Service

Many Durco Teflon seated valves are suitable for a wide variety of steam services. It is important, however, that
modifications be made to some valve types.
1.
Manual On / Off Service clean saturated steam up to 100 PSIG inlet (337 F).
2.
Automated On / Off Service clean saturated steam up to 150 PSIG inlet (366 F).
3.
Automated Throttling Service clean saturated steam up to 150 PSIG inlet (366 F with a maximum P of 100
PSIG and the valve operating in the 40% to 60% open position.)
Big Max Valves

All Big Max valves can be applied as outlined above without any modifications.
G4 and SG4 Valves

All G4 and SG4 valves for use on any steam service must have the plug vented to the bottom cavity and have a
glass filled sleeve. Modulating / throttling service valves should also utilize a V-port (EG / SEG) plug with the V-port
installed upstream.
Atomac, T4, BL and BTV Valves

All Teflon lined valves are NOT recommended for steam service.
Mach 1 Valves
Mach 1 valves on steam have the same restrictions as the G4 and should use the full SLEEVE and NOT Port Seals.

TERMINOLOGY
BERNOULLI COEFFICIENT - In any stream, if the area is changed, as by a reducer, there is a
corresponding change in the static pressure, or "head". This pressure change is measured in units of "velocity
head". The dimensionless coefficient used for this purpose is the Bernoulli Coefficient KB.
CHOKED FLOW - The condition which exists when, with the upstream pressure remaining constant, the flow
through a valve cannot be further increased by lowering the downstream pressure.
COEFFICIENT OF DISCHARGE - The ratio of actual flow to theoretical flow. It includes the effects of jet
contraction and turbulence.
COMPRESSIBILITY FACTOR - A factor used to compensate for deviation from the laws of perfect gases. If
the gas laws are used to compute the specific weight of a gas, the computed value must be adjusted by the
compressibility factor (Z) to obtain the true specific weight.
COMPRESSIBLE - Capable of being compressed. Gas and vapor are compressible fluids.
CRITICAL FLOW - This is a somewhat ambiguous term which signifies a point where the characteristics of flow
suffer a finite change. In the case of a liquid, critical flow could mean the point where the flow regime changes
from laminar to transitional. It is more often used to mean choked flow. In the case of a gas, critical flow
may mean the point where the velocity at the vena contracts attains the velocity of sound, or it may mean the
point where the flow is fully choked.
CRITICAL PRESSURE - The equilibrium pressure of a fluid which is at its critical temperature.
CRITICAL TEMPERATURE - The temperature of a fluid above which the fluid cannot be liquefied by
pressure.
INCOMPRESSIBLE - Liquids are referred to as being incompressible since their change in volume due
to pressure is negligible.
INCREASER - A pipe fitting identical to a reducer except specifically referred to for enlargements in the
direction of flow.
LAMINAR FLOW - Also known as viscous or streamline flow. A non-turbulent flow regime in which
the stream filaments glide along the pipe axially with essentially no transverse mixing. This occurs at low
Reynolds numbers, is usually associated with viscous liquids, and rarely occurs with gas flows in valves. Flow
rate varies linearly with 6P.
RANGEABILITY - Installed rangeability may be defined as the ratio of maximum to minimum flow
within which the deviation from a desired installed flow characteristic does not exceed some stated limits.
Inherent rangeability, a property of the valve alone, may be defined as the ratio of maximum to minimum
flow coefficients between which the gain of the valve does not deviate from a specified gain by some stated
tolerance.
REDUCER - A pipe fitting which is used to couple a pipe of one size to a pipe of a different size.
REYNOLDS NUMBER - A dimensionless criterion of the nature of flow pipes. It is proportional to the
ratio of dynamic forces to viscous forces: The product of diameter, velocity and density, divided by absolute
viscosity.
65
SPECIFIC HEAT - The ratio of the thermal capacity of a substance to that of water. The specific heat at
constant pressure of a gas is designated cp. The specific heat at constant volume of a gas is designated cv. The
ratio of the two (cp/cv = k) is called the Ratio of Specific Heats.
STREAMLINE FLOW - See "Laminar Flow".
TRANSITIONAL FLOW - A flow regime which lies between turbulent flow and laminar flow.
TRANSITIONAL FLOW - A flow regime characterized by random motion of the fluid particles in the tranverse
direction, as well as motion in the axial direction. This occurs at high Reynolds numbers and is the type of flow
most common in industrial fluid systems. Flow varies as the square root of P.
TURNDOWN - The ratio of the maximum plant design flow rate to the minimum plant design flow rate.
VAPOR PRESSURE - The equilibrium pressure which would exist in a confined space over a liquid.
VELOCITY OF APPROACH - A factor(F) determined by the ratio (m) of the valve orifice area to the inlet pipe
area.
VELOCITY HEAD - The pressure, measured in height of fluid column, needed to create a fluid velocity.
Numerically velocity head is the square of the velocity divided by twice the acceleration of gravity (Ul/2g).
VENA CONTRACTA - The place along the axis of flow, just beyond the orifice, where the jet stream contracts
to its minimum cross-sectional area.

CONTROL VALVE SIZING CAVITATING AND FLASHING LIQUIDS

FIGURE 1.2 - CRITICAL PRESSURE RATIOS FOR WATER

Pv = Vapor Pressure (psia)

Pv/Pc Where Pv = Vapor Pressure (psia) and Pc = Critical Pressure (psia)

Where: X, Y, G, CV, and Z are dimensionless

Where: X = P/P1 (P1 in psia)

1.4 Specific heat ratio of air

Xt = From sizing charts (start at Xt = 0.5)

1360 (114.7) (0.83)

Y 0.54 (choked flow) therefore, Y = 0.667

Where: Y, X CV are dimensionless

2) Y is greater than 0.667, therefore, use formula

Y 0.524 (choked flow) therefore, Y = 0.667

2) Y is less than 0.667, therefore, use formula 1-3.2.

Y is less than 0.667 (choked flow)
