Difference between Butterfly valve and Valve

Butterfly valve vs. Valve

A butterfly valve is a valve that isolates or regulates the flow of a fluid. A valve is a device that regulates, directs or controls the flow of a fluid (gases, liquids, fluidized solids, or slurries) by opening, closing, or partially obstructing various passageways.

Similarities between Butterfly valve and Valve

Butterfly valve and Valve have 12 things in common (in Unionpedia): Actuator, Ball valve, Control valve, Flange, Fluid dynamics, Gate valve, Globe valve, Metal, Needle valve, O-ring, Plastic pipework, Pressure.

Actuator

An actuator is a component of a machine that is responsible for moving and controlling a mechanism or system, for example by opening a valve.

Ball valve

A ball valve is a form of quarter-turn valve which uses a hollow, perforated and pivoting ball to control flow through it.

Control valve

A control valve is a valve used to control fluid flow by varying the size of the flow passage as directed by a signal from a controller.

Flange

A flange is an external or internal ridge, or rim (lip), for strength, as the flange of an iron beam such as an I-beam or a T-beam; or for attachment to another object, as the flange on the end of a pipe, steam cylinder, etc., or on the lens mount of a camera; or for a flange of a rail car or tram wheel.

Fluid dynamics

In physics and engineering, fluid dynamics is a subdiscipline of fluid mechanics that describes the flow of fluids - liquids and gases.

Gate valve

A gate valve, also known as a sluice valve, is a valve which opens by lifting a round or rectangular gate/wedge out of the path of the fluid.

Globe valve

A globe valve, different from ball valve, is a type of valve used for regulating flow in a pipeline, consisting of a movable disk-type element and a stationary ring seat in a generally spherical body.

Metal

A metal (from Greek μέταλλον métallon, "mine, quarry, metal") is a material (an element, compound, or alloy) that is typically hard when in solid state, opaque, shiny, and has good electrical and thermal conductivity.

Needle valve

A needle valve is a type of valve having a small port and a threaded, needle-shaped plunger.

O-ring

An O-ring, also known as a packing, or a toric joint, is a mechanical gasket in the shape of a torus; it is a loop of elastomer with a round cross-section, designed to be seated in a groove and compressed during assembly between two or more parts, creating a seal at the interface.

Plastic pipework

Plastic pipe is a tubular section, or hollow cylinder, made of plastic.

Pressure

Pressure (symbol: p or P) is the force applied perpendicular to the surface of an object per unit area over which that force is distributed.
