Abstract
The history of the development and use of multiport sleeve valves is reviewed. The concept of using the multiport sleeve valve as an energy dissipator as well as a control valve for water pipelines is explored. It is expected that high-pressure head flows (150 to 300 m) can be controlled with the use of the multiport sleeve valve. Head loss coefficients for two sleeve valve designs are presented based on laboratory tests of 200-mm valve. Physical and mathematical models are described which were used to develop a horizontal multiport sleeve valve for long pipelines. The multiport sleeve valve is quite versatile with respect to hydraulic and mechanical design.
