L/D Factor for 3 way valves..
L/D Factor for 3 way valves..
(OP)
sorry for a short question.. I'm struggling for a decent reference for the L/D for standard 3 way valves..
I normally use 1 eblow and a valve, which is conservative but on a recent calc I exceed 3% inlet line losses on an RV. So I'd prefer the calculations to show less than 3% so I dont need to argue why over 3% is ok, there are reasons why we cannot enlarge line size etc..
thanks in advance
