Gas Control Valve Sizing Guide

This document provides sizing information for control valve PV123 to handle gas flow rates ranging from 15,000 to 94,000 scfh. It specifies inlet pressure, temperature, pressure drop, pipe diameters, and required flow coefficients to achieve the needed pressure drops at each flow rate. A 2-inch segment ball valve is selected based on being able to achieve the required flow coefficients and pressure drops across the range of flows.
