[0072] Where: K is the loss coefficient at the current Reynolds number, is the loss coefficient when the Reynolds number is 10000, K and Obtained according to the Reynolds number-loss coefficient characteristic curve.

[0073] The process of obtaining the Reynolds number-loss coefficient characteristic curve specifically includes the following steps:

[0074] Step 101: Build a fluid circulation system including a check valve.

[0075] Step 102: gradually change the flow rate through the check valve, and record the mass flow rate, dynamic viscosity and pressure drop of the fluid at each flow point.

[0076] It should be noted that the measurement is repeated several times at each flow point to ensure the consistency and accuracy of the data. During the measurement process, a constant inlet temperature needs to be set and maintained, and the inlet pressure of the system needs to be stable.

[0109] ;

[0110] in, is the Mach number under the reference area, is the total pressure at the inlet, is the reference area, Z is the compressibility factor, which is used to describe the deviation between the real gas and the ideal gas behavior. R is the universal gas constant, a constant used to describe the ideal gas state equation. T is the gas temperature at the inlet. γ is the adiabatic index, which refers to the ratio of the specific heat capacity at constant pressure to the specific heat capacity at constant volume of the gas, usually 1.4 for air.

[0111] Step 5: Obtain the total pressure at the check valve outlet based on the mass flow rate and the total pressure at the inlet.

[0112] Total pressure at check valve outlet The following formula is used to calculate:

[0113] ;

[0114] in, is the total pressure at the inlet, is the mass flow rate at the outlet, is the weight coefficient, which can be calculated based on parameters such as the circulation coefficient.

[0115] Step 6: According to the total pressure at the inlet and outlet of the check valve, the pressure drop of the check valve is obtained. The pressure drop of the check valve ΔP = the total pressure at the outlet -Total pressure at inlet .

[0116] According to the above prediction process, the performance parameters of the check valve, pressure drop and loss coefficient between the inlet and outlet, can be quickly obtained. The present invention reduces the calculation time by optimizing the algorithm, making the check valve performance prediction faster, while ensuring that the prediction results have high accuracy, reducing the demand for high-performance computing resources, and thus reducing the overall cost.
