Engineers' Valve Sizing Guide

This document provides information to calculate the required valve size for a 3 inch globe valve with a rated Cv of 99 and rated xT of 0.72 that controls the flow of saturated steam. It includes input data on pipe sizes, fluid properties of the steam including flow rates and pressures, and outputs the required Cv and percent of valve Cv needed at maximum, normal, and minimum flow rates.
