How Control valve sizing is done?

Answer Posted / e mohana priya

A basic liquid sizing eqtn.. is as follows:

Q = C
V
∆P / G
(1)
where:
Q
=
Capacity in gallons per minute
C
v
=
Valve sizing coefficient determined experimentally for
each style and size of valve, using water at standard
conditions as the test fluid

P
=
Pressure differential in psi
G
=
Specific gravity of fluid (water at 60°F = 1.0000)
Thus, C
v
is numerically equal to the number of U.S. gallons of water at 60°F that will flow through the valve in one minute when
the pressure differential across the valve is one pound per square
inch. C
v
varies with both size and style of valve, but provides an
index for comparing liquid capacities of different valves under a
standard set of conditions.

To calculate the expected C
v
for a valve controlling water or other
liquids that behave like water, the basic liquid sizing equation
above can be re-written as follows
C
V
= Q
G
∆P

Why does a pressure gauge installed on reactor, doesn't have any vent line below to release the pressure? Is it any kind of designing mistake or it actually does not require any vent line? And if it does not require any vent line below it then how we are gonna release the pressure built inside the pressure gauge?
