Calculation Modules

🔧

Body Wall Thickness

Thin-wall cylinder formula SB = P*Dn/(2.3*[sL]-P) + C with corrosion allowance

🔐

Seal Face Pressure

Sealing force QMZ and specific pressure: qMF ≤ q ≤ [q] verification

📁

Disc Thickness

Empirical formula b = 0.054D*H^(1/3) including water hammer head

📐

Disc Section A-A

Bending stress at disc section through stem bores via inertia method

📐

Disc Section B-B

Bending stress via multi-section inertia summation JB = Sum(Ji)

⚙

Stem Torque

MM+MC+MT+Mj+Md total eccentric torque with dynamic hydrodynamic component

⚙

Stem Strength

Torsional stress at sections II-II and III-III with keyway correction

Design Flow

Body & Seal

M1+M2: Verify body wall and sealing pressure

Disc Strength

M3+M4+M5: Disc thickness and section A-A/B-B stress

Stem Torque

M6: Calculate total operating torque

Stem Strength

M7: Verify torsional stress at key sections
