    This document provides an introduction and technical analysis of poppet valves. It discusses the advantages of poppet valves which include low manufacturing costs and easy changing of sealing elements. However, it also notes problems associated with poppet valves like pitting due to opening impacts and spring wear. It concludes that while poppet valves are suitable for some applications like gas transport, other valve designs may be more favorable from both a technical and overall cost perspective, especially for process applications with high pressure ratios.

    Dynamics of Poppet Valves

    Very sensitive to opening impact due to rather thin and fragile stem. Danger of non-parallel impact and overload on the stem edge

    Insensitive to closing impact due to massive poppet head and profiled seat land geometry

    Poppets in Applications

    Gas Transport (low pressure ratios)


    Low opening impacts High lifts Good efficiency Clearance less important

    Process Applications (high pressure ratios)

    Danger of high opening impacts Danger of sticktion effects (oil, dirt, sticky constituents, etc) Low lifts Low efficiency Valve clearance problems

    Problems associated with Poppet Valves

    Pitting due to the opening impact (increases lift further)

    Spring wear due to buckling (contact in the middle sections)

    -/+0*.,+0

    Problems associated with Poppet Valves

    Compressor control - reduced flow area due to plug


    - increase of valve losses

    - additional clearance in the case of a port unloader


    - reduction of volume flow

    Wear on the seat land Difficulty in re-machining seat ports

    -/+0*.,+0

    Conclusions

    Poppet valve have optimum applications - low pressure ratios (high lifts) - no compressor flow regulation - e.g. Gas Transport For process applications - high pressure ratios (small lifts) - regulated compressors - heavy gases Other valve designs are more favourable not only from the TECHNICAL but ESPECIALLY from the OVERALL COST perspective.
