選擇閥門應遵循的原則：

Principles for valve selection:

1、截止和開放介質(zhì)用的閥門

1. Valves for stop and open media

流道為直通式的閥門，其流阻較小，通常選擇作為截止和開放介質(zhì)用的閥門。向下閉合式閥門（截止閥、柱塞閥）由于其流道曲折，流阻比其他閥門高，故較少選用。在允許有較高流阻的場合，可選用閉合式閥門。

The flow passage is a straight through valve with small flow resistance. It is usually selected as the valve for cut-off and open medium. Downward closed valves (stop valve, plunger valve) are less selected because of their tortuous flow path and higher flow resistance than other valves. Where high flow resistance is allowed, closed valves can be selected.

2、控制流量用的閥門

2. Valve for controlling flow

通常選擇易于調(diào)節(jié)流量的閥門作為控制流量用。向下閉合式閥門（如截止閥）適于這一用途，因為它的閥座尺寸與關(guān)閉件的行程之間成正比關(guān)系。旋轉(zhuǎn)式閥門（旋塞閥、蝶閥、球閥）和撓曲閥體式閥門（夾緊閥、隔膜閥）也可用于節(jié)流控制，但通常只能在有限的閥門口徑范圍內(nèi)適用。閘閥是以圓盤形閘板對圓形閥座口做橫切運動，它只有在接近關(guān)閉位置時，才能較好地控制流量，故通常不用于流量控制。

Generally, the valve easy to adjust the flow is selected as the flow control valve. Downward closing valves (such as globe valves) are suitable for this purpose because its seat size is directly proportional to the stroke of the closing member. Rotary valves (plug valves, butterfly valves, ball valves) and flex body valves (clamp valves, diaphragm valves) can also be used for throttling control, but they are usually only applicable to a limited range of valve diameters. The gate valve uses a disc-shaped gate to make a cross cutting movement to the circular valve seat. It can better control the flow only when it is close to the closed position, so it is usually not used for flow control.

3、換向分流用的閥門

3. Valve for reversing and shunting

根據(jù)換向分流的需要，這種閥門可有三個或更多的通道。旋塞閥和球閥較適用于這一目的，因此，大部分用于換向分流的閥門都選取這類閥門中的一種。但是在有些情況下，其他類型的閥門，只要把兩個或更多個閥門適當?shù)叵嗷ミB接起來，也可作換向分流用。

The valve can have three or more channels according to the needs of reversing and shunting. Plug valves and ball valves are more suitable for this purpose. Therefore, most of the valves used for directional diversion choose one of these valves. However, in some cases, other types of valves can also be used for reversing and shunting as long as two or more valves are properly connected with each other.

4、帶有懸浮顆粒的介質(zhì)用閥門

4. Valve for medium with suspended particles

當介質(zhì)中帶有懸浮顆粒時，適于采用其關(guān)閉件沿密封面的滑動帶有擦拭作用的閥門。如果關(guān)閉件對閥座的來回運動是豎直的，那末就可能夾持顆粒，因此這種閥門除非密封面材料可以允許嵌入顆粒，否則只適用于基本清潔的介質(zhì)。球閥和旋塞閥在啟閉過程中對密封面均有擦拭作用，故適宜用在帶有懸浮顆粒的介質(zhì)中。

When there are suspended particles in the medium, it is suitable to use the valve with wiping function by sliding its closing part along the sealing surface. If the back and forth movement of the closing member to the valve seat is vertical, particles may be clamped. Therefore, this valve is only suitable for basically clean media unless the sealing surface material allows particles to be embedded. Ball valve and plug valve can wipe the sealing surface during opening and closing, so they are suitable for medium with suspended particles.
