A flow control valve assembly, and a method of determining and controlling fluid flow through the valve, that is relatively simple in design, is relatively inexpensive, is accurate, and has a relatively wide measurement range. The flow control valve is relatively compact and includes all of the flow measurement and control components in a single, relatively compact assembly. Such components may include a differential pressure sensor, pressure sensor, a temperature sensor, a position sensor, and a processor. The differential pressure sensor senses differential pressure across the variable area flow orifice. The pressure sensor senses fluid pressure within the valve and supplies a fluid pressure signal. The temperature sensor senses fluid temperature and supplies a fluid temperature signal. The position sensor senses the position of the variable area flow orifice and supplies a position signal. The processor receives the differential pressure signal, the fluid pressure signal, the fluid temperature signal, and the position signal and uses these signals to determine and control fluid flow parameter in the passageway.

A flow control device may include an inlet for passing fluid into the device, an outlet for passing fluid from the device, a pneumatic pressure controlling portion, a fluid flow control valve actuated by pneumatic pressure supplied via the pneumatic pressure controlling portion, a flow meter configured to measure flow rate of the fluid, and a controller configured to control the pneumatic pressure controlling portion at least according to the flow rate measured by the flow meter. Actuation of the fluid flow control valve may cause adjustment of the flow rate.

The invention discloses an electronic device comprising a housing and an air volume adjusting device; wherein, the housing is defined with a holding space and an air inlet causing the holding space to be communicated with the outside; the air volume adjusting device comprises a plate piece for covering the air inlet and an actuating mechanism, wherein, the actuating mechanism can drive the plate piece to move to open the air inlet along with temperature change of the holding space; the supply air rate of the holding space can be increased by the configuration of the air volume adjusting device so as to effectively improve the heat dissipation efficiency of a heat dissipation fan and lower the possibility of system halt due to poor heat dissipation in the system; in addition, the air volume adjusting device with simple structure can effectively increase heat dissipation efficiency and does not need to adopt complex heat dissipation assemblies with high price and complex structure, so that manufacturing cost can be effectively lowered.

Solid metal ammine complexes are applied for safe and high-density storage of ammonia to be released for use as reducing agent in selective catalytic reduction of NO_x in exhaust gases. The compositional formula of the metal ammine complexes is M(NH₃)_nX_z, where M^Z+ represents one or more metal ions capable of binding ammonia, X represents one or more anions, n is the coordination number (from 2 to 12), and z the valency of the metal ion (and thus the total number of compensating anion charges). Ammonia is released by generating a reduced gas-phase pressure of ammonia inside the container, which is below the equilibrium desorption pressure of ammonia at the operating temperature of the storage material thus enabling the unit to be operated is a safe manner with lower operating temperature and pressure.

A pilot-type water discharging/stopping and flow regulating valve device capable of performing both the discharging/stopping of water and the regulation of flow by light operations, and capable of, once the flow is regulated, discharging the water at a pre-regulated specified flow in the next water discharge even if the water is stopped.

The pilot type water discharging/stopping and flow regulating valve device has a main valve, a back pressure chamber, an introducing small hole, a pilot channel and a flow regulating mechanism. The flow of the main channel is regulated by advancing and retreating the main valve following the advance/retreat of a pilot valve. The valve device further has a water discharging/stopping switching mechanism that switches between the discharging and stopping of water by advancing and retreating the pilot valve between a water discharge position and a water stop position. Furthermore, the flow regulating mechanism is configured to maintain the flow regulating position of the pilot valve at a previously regulated flow regulating position when the water discharging/stopping switching mechanism causes the pilot valve to perform water discharging operation after causing the pilot valve to perform water stopping operation.

A technique facilitates controlling fluid flows, such as fluid flows in a downhole well zone or zones. A flow control valve is employed to control a fluid flow and is operationally linked with an injection valve. Actuation of the flow control valve is used to automatically actuate the injection valve between corresponding positions allowing or blocking fluid injection. Closing or opening of the flow control valve thus results in a desired corresponding action of the injection valve, such as blocking flow or allowing flow through the injection valve.

Embodiments of the invention relate to systems, methods, and apparatuses for a control valve. In one embodiment, a valve can be provided. The valve can include a flow restrictor portion operable to generate a pressure drop in a fluid flow by viscous dissipation; a throttle portion operable to change a flow rate of the fluid; and a guard portion operable to separate the flow restrictor portion from the throttle portion.

Embodiments of a fluid flow regulating device and methods of using the same are described. Certain embodiments manages fluid flow between one or more input ports and output ports at least partly in response to fluid pressure changes and/or by a mechanism driven by fluid flow, optionally without using electrical power.

A check valve nozzle having at least two discharge ports and providing improved mixing between the discharged fluid and the receiving fluid. The check valve nozzle may be of a “duckbill” type or a “pancake” type. The “duckbill” type may have discharge ports that vary in size, orientation with respect to the longitudinal centerline of the check valve nozzle, and/or construction materials. The “pancake” type may discharge the fluid from the check valve nozzle in a perpendicular, forward, or rearward direction. The check valve nozzle assembly contains a number of check valve nozzles that can vary in size, orientation with respect to the longitudinal centerline of the end cap of the assembly, and/or construction materials.

An internally adjustable damper for use in a commercial kitchen includes a housing having a sidewall defining an interior, a first open end, and a second open end in fluid communication with the first open end. A damper blade is disposed within the housing and is rotatable about an axis of rotation to allow a selectable air flow resistance. An arch extends from the damper blade and adjacent to the sidewall, the arch being symmetric about the axis of rotation. A threaded stud extends from the sidewall into the interior of the housing and is disposed adjacent the arch. A fastener is operatively coupled to the threaded stud, wherein the fastener is adapted to selectively press down against the arch, thereby fixing the location of the damper blade, and retract from the arch, thereby allowing the damper blade to rotate about the axis of rotation. The fastener and the baffle are accessible from inside the housing through either the first open end or the second open end.

It is proposed to design a fluid flux regulating unit (1, 28, 35, 41, 53, 56, 58), comprising a first fluid port (3), a second fluid port (4) and a valve means (6) , in a way that the valve means (6) comprises at least one fluid pressure balancing means (13, 25, 30, 31, 33, 52).
