VX21/22/23 Series
Example 1)
Obtain the pressure difference when water [15 L/min] runs through the solenoid valve with a Kv = 1.5 m
3
/h.
As the flow rate when Kv = 1 is calculated as the formula: Q0 = 15 x 1/1.5 = 10 [L/min], read off ∆P when Q0 is
10 [L/min] in Graph (2). The reading is 0.036 [MPa].
Example 2)
Obtain the saturated steam flow rate when P1 = 0.8 [MPa] and ∆P = 0.008 [MPa] with a solenoid valve
with a Kv = 0.05 [m
3
/h]. Read off Q0 when P1 is 0.8 and ∆P is 0.008 in Graph (2), the reading is 20 kg/h.
Therefore, the flow rate is calculated as the formula: Q = 0.05/1 x 20 = 1 [kg/h].
Conversion of flow coefficient:
Kv = 0.865
Cv ···········································································(11)
Here,
Cv factor: Value of the clean water flow rate represented by US gal/min that runs through the valve at 40 to
100°F, when the pressure difference is 1 lbf/in
2
(psi)
Value is different from
Kv and Cv factors for pneumatic purpose due to different test method.
(4) Test method
Connect the equipment for the test to the test circuit shown in Fig. (3), and run water at 5 to 40°C. Then, measure the flow rate with
a pressure difference where vaporization does not occur in a turbulent flow (pressure difference of 0.035 MPa to 0.075 MPa when
the inlet pressure is within 0.15 MPa to 0.6 MPa). However, as the turbulent flow is definitely caused, the pressure difference needs
to be set with a large enough difference so that the Reynolds number does not fall below 1 x 105, and the inlet pressure needs to
be set slightly higher to prevent vaporization of the liquid. Substitute the measurement results in formula (8) to calculate Kv.

Flow Rate Characteristics 1
Note) Use this graph as a guide. In the case of obtaining an accurate flow rate, refer to pages 66 through to 70.
How to read the graph
The sonic range pressure to generate a flow rate of 400 L/min (ANR) is P
1
≈ 0.2 MPa for a ø4 orifice and P
1
≈ 0.58 MPa for a ø3 orifice.
How to read the graph
When a water flow of 2 L/min is generated, ∆P ≈ 0.013 MPa for a valve with ø3 orifice.
