This model describes a pilot operated pressure relief valve. The resistance depends on the pressure difference:
dp = pa.p - pb.p
pclosed_pilot=pclosed-pt.p
popen_pilot=popen-pt.p
dp < pclosed_pilot => valve closed, only leakage: pa.phi = pb.phi = dp * GLeak
pclosed_pilot < dp < popen_pilot => working range, i. e. valve partially opened
popen_pilot < dp => valve wide open: pa.phi = pb.phi = dp * GOpen

Valve is closed under this pressure when pilot pressure is 0 [Pa]. Valve is fully open above this pressure when pilot pressure is 0 [Pa]. Valve is closed under this pressure [Pa]. Valve is fully open above this pressure [Pa]. Conductance of closed valve [m3/s.Pa]. Conductance of open valve [m3/s.Pa]. |
