What are the different types of 3 way valves?

There are two types of 3-way ball valves: L-Port and T-Port. An L-Port can send flow one way or the other or can shut it off completely. A T-Port will perform all the same flow tasks as an L-Port but cannot be shut off. In addition, the T-Port can mix flows by sending or receiving flow to/from both ways of the Tee.

How to identify butterfly valve size?

Choosing the right butterfly valve size relies on flow rate, pressure, application, and available installation space. The formula Q = Cv√ΔP shows how flow rate and pressure work together to determine the correct valve size.
