Characteristics of Cavitation Flow for a Regulating Valve Based on Entropy Production Theory

A regulating valve is a key control element in the coal liquefaction industry, whose flow field distribution is related to the entropy production. In order to make a quantitative evaluation of the energy loss in the cavitation flow and calculate the magnitude and location of the hydraulic loss in th...
