34、-phase fluids,dense slurries,dry solids,or non-Newtonian liquids are encountered.In addition,the prediction of cavitation,noise,or other effects is not a part of this standard.2 IntroductionThe equations of this standard are based on the use of experimentally determined capacity factors obtained by
35、testing control valve specimens according to the procedures of ANSI/ISA S75.02,“Control Valve Capacity Test Procedure”(see Annex JReferences).The equations are used to predict the flow rate of a fluid through a valve when all the factors,including those related to the fluid and its flowing condition
36、,are known.When the equations are used to select a valve size,it is often necessary to use capacity factors associated with the fully open or rated condition to predict an approximate required valve flow coefficient(Cv).This procedure is further explained in Annex A.2.1 Flow variable and fluid prope

47、pressible fluid flow of nonvaporizing liquidThe flow rate of a liquid through a given control valve at a given travel is a function of the differential pressure(p1 p2)when the liquid does not partially vaporize between the inlet and outlet of the valve.If vapor bubbles form either temporarily(cavita
48、tion)or permanently(flashing),this relationship may no longer hold.(Refer to Section 5 for choked flow equations that apply when extensive vaporization occurs.)In the transitional region between nonvaporizing liquid flow and fully choked flow,the actual flow rate is less than that predicted by eithe
49、r the equations in this section or those in Section 5.Cavitation that occurs in this transitional region can produce physical damage to the valve and/or to the downstream piping and equipment.14ISA-S75.01-1985(R 1995)4.1 Equations for turbulent flowThe equations for determining the flow rate of a li
