Understanding the Butterfly Valve
Butterfly valves are widely used in various industries for regulating and controlling the flow of fluids. The design of a butterfly valve consists of a disc (or vane) mounted on a rotating shaft. When the valve is opened, the disc rotates to allow fluid to flow through, and when it is closed, the disc obstructs the passage, effectively halting the flow. This simple yet efficient mechanism makes butterfly valves ideal for applications where quick operation and reliable sealing are required.
