I want to start studying selection of manual valves and flow criteria inside valves, so I need a guidance like some books or softawre for fluid simulation?

You can start with these classic references:

P.SKOUSEN - Valve Handbook
R.ZAPPE - Valve Selection Handbook
Crane TP 410 - Flow of Fluids Through Valves, Fittings, and Pipe

For evaluating different control valve designs, download free copy of Fisher Specification Manager at:

In addition: Use the net actively. Search this forum and the net generally (especially for suppliers and producerssuppliers information) both for specific questions and general selection. Many larger well-renownn producers have updated selection guides depending on flow, media and detailed flow characteristics.

Remember that the situation seldom is static over a longer perode in a valve: it will always vary and be dependent on what you let in and take out of your system, and what happens elswehere in the system.

Good luck!
