    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_valve

    This valve expansion causes misalignment in the valve-to-seal interface as an engine moves from room temperature to full operating temperature. If the seals are pressed against the valve with higher pressure to accommodate this expansion, high friction and power loss occurs, plus high rates of wear.

    A Corliss steam engine – the valve gear is on the right of the cylinder block, on the left of the picture. A Corliss steam engine (or Corliss engine) is a steam engine, fitted with rotary valves and with variable valve timing patented in 1849, invented by and named after the US engineer George Henry Corliss of Providence, Rhode Island.

    Animation of a spinning scroll compressor. Léon Creux first patented a scroll compressor in 1905 in France and the US. [2] Creux invented the compressor as a rotary steam engine concept, but the metal casting technology of the period was not sufficiently advanced to construct a working prototype, since a scroll compressor demands very tight tolerances to function effectively.

    These water valves are operated by rotary handles. A valve is a device or natural object that regulates, ... and for high temperature applications Inconel X750.

  6. Internal combustion engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_combustion_engine

    In an internal combustion engine, the expansion of the high-temperature and high-pressure gases produced by combustion applies direct force to some component of the engine. The force is typically applied to pistons (piston engine), turbine blades (gas turbine), a rotor (Wankel engine), or a nozzle . This force moves the component over a distance.

    Thermal shut off valve or Thermally released shut off valve, protects against excessive temperature, mandatory in the gas installation of some countries; Trap primer: sometimes include other types of valves, or are valves themselves; Vacuum breaker valve: prevents the back-siphonage of contaminated water into pressurized drinkable water supplies
