Design and Analysis of Emergency Shut Off Valve by Using Finite Element Analysis

Abstract

In chemical ,nuclear, petroleum industries emergency shutdown valve (ESDV) acts as a safeguard against exceeding set point Pressure. During normal operation, the valve remains open for an extended period of time months or sometimes even years and must function as called upon during an emergency situation. This project focuses on the exchange of liquid between two chambers, where it is required that flow be shut off when a certain pressure is reached. The pressure valve is to design the, with regards to a pushing load and the valve countered by a bending load by the flowing liquid. The dimensionality should be such that, self weight should be the operational parameter for the valve with an integrated spring design to create an emergency shut off operation
