RE: Bean
Bigger bean, means bigger hole, means more production, (provided the flow through the choke is still in critical flow, ie the flow velocity through the choke is still greater than the sonic velocity).
Try the manufacturer's websites: Anson, Masterflo, for picture of choke valves etc.
RE: Bean
There are many standard choke and bean patterns based upon expired patents from 70 years ago. Many oilfield supply houses stock the common beans.
The choke is used to drop lot's of pressure through a replaceble part, the bean, that errodes over time. I have used fixed chokes downstream of blowdown valves on an offshore gas processing platform. They are commonly used near the wellhead.

RE: Bean
Many thanks for all ur feedback. One step ahead, unlike normal choke valves, what are specialities of Mokveld valves used in offshore industry? I have been trying to gather more info....But would like to know the internal parts and how accessible internals are for an inspection?
