working principle
When the globe valve is opened and closed, it is of a rising valve stem type, that is to say, when the handwheel is turned, the handwheel will rotate and lift together with the valve stem. The gate valve rotates the handwheel to make the valve stem move up and down, and the position of the handwheel itself remains unchanged. Flow rates vary, gate valves require fully open or fully closed, and globe valves do not. Globe valves have specified inlet and outlet directions; gate valves do not have requirements for inlet and outlet directions.
In addition, the gate valve has only two states: fully open or fully closed, the gate opening and closing stroke is large, and the opening and closing time is long. The movement stroke of the valve plate of the globe valve is much smaller, and the valve plate of the globe valve can stop at a certain place during the movement for flow regulation. The gate valve can only be used for truncation and has no other functions.
Performance difference
The globe valve can be used for both cut-off and flow regulation. The fluid resistance of the globe valve is relatively large, and it is more laborious to open and close, but because the distance between the valve plate and the sealing surface is short, the opening and closing stroke is short.
Because the gate valve can only be fully opened and fully closed, when it is fully opened, the medium flow resistance in the valve body channel is almost 0, so the opening and closing of the gate valve will be very labor-saving, but the gate is far away from the sealing surface, and the opening and closing time is long.
