Identification of leakage in ball valves by analysis of pressure and torque signatures in cyclical tests under critical operating conditions

Prototypes of Trunnion ball valves fitted with Scotch Yoke actuators have been submitted to opening and closing cycling tests so as to monitor and analyze their operation under critical conditions in order to evaluate their failure modes. The prototypes were arranged so as to collect data related to...
