Iconic Diagrams\Hydraulics\Valves
Domains: Continuous. Size: 1-D. Kind: Iconic Diagrams (Hydraulics).
This model describes a spring-loaded check valve with parasitic volumes. The resistance depends on the pressure difference:
dp < pclosed => valve closed, only leakage: pa.phi = pb.phi = dp * GLeak
pclosed < dp < popen => working range, i. e. valve partially opened
popen < dp => valve wide open: pa.phi = pb.phi = K * sqrt(dp - pclosed);
