  2. Flutter valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flutter_valve

    Heimlich valve: The flutter valve functions by allowing only outwards airflow from the body of the patient. Photo depicting a Heimlich valve. The construction of the flutter valve enables it to function as a one-way valve allowing airflow, or the flow of a fluid, in only one direction along the drainage tube.

  3. Pilot-operated relief valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilot-operated_relief_valve

    A separate actuator on the piping releases pressure in the line if it crosses a threshold. This releases the pressure on the back of the seal, causing the valve to open. The essential parts of a PORV are a pilot valve (or control pilot), a main valve, a pilot tube, the dome, a disc or piston, and a seat. The volume above the piston is called ...

  4. Pneumatic circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pneumatic_circuit

    The normally closed valves will not permit flow from the inlet port of the valve to the outlet port, normally the flow will be permitted only by changing the position of the valve. In general, valves are designated as 2/2 DCV, 3/2 DCV, 5/2 DCV, 5/3 DCV etc., in which the first number indicates number of ports and second number indicates number ...

  6. Aeroelasticity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aeroelasticity

    flutter which is uncontained vibration that can lead to the destruction of an aircraft. Aeroelasticity problems can be prevented by adjusting the mass, stiffness or aerodynamics of structures which can be determined and verified through the use of calculations, ground vibration tests and flight flutter trials.

  7. Flow control valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_control_valve

    These valves achieve this using pressure-compensated mechanisms, which automatically adjust the valve opening to ensure a steady flow rate. Some designs incorporate a dual-chamber configuration that enhances regulation at lower pressures, improving stability in applications such as irrigation, industrial water systems, and municipal water ...

  9. Mass flow controller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_flow_controller

    All mass flow controllers have an inlet port, an outlet port, a mass flow sensor and a proportional control valve. The MFC is fitted with a closed loop control system which is given an input signal by the operator (or an external circuit/computer) that it compares to the value from the mass flow sensor and adjusts the proportional valve ...
