A rotary valve, at the ones I'm familiar with, is typically used to move solid materials from a hopper. Basically the valve is designed with a paddle wheel which is shaft-mounted and driven by a motor. The rotary valve is similar to a revolving door: the paddles or blades form an airtight seal with the housing; the motor slowly moves the blades to allow the solids to discharge from the hopper. I know how Trumpet rotary valves work. Just tilt the trumpet sideways so the rotary valves face upwards and play.

∙ 12y agoThe heart has two upper chambers called the right and left atria and two lower chambers called the right and left ventricles. On the right side of the heart, blood lacking oxygen returns from the body into the right atrium. The tricuspid valve connects the right atrium to the right ventricle and opens allowing blood to flow from the right atrium to the right ventricle when the heart is not contracting. When the heart contracts, the tricuspid valve closes preventing blood from flowing backwards from the right ventricle into the right atrium. Then the right ventricle ejects blood across the pulmonic valve into the pulmonary arteries and eventually the lungs. The pulmonic valve closes preventing blood from flowing backwards from the lungs into the right ventricle. After blood passes through the lungs, picking up oxygen, it arrives in the left atrium and crosses the mitral valve into the left ventricle. When the heart contracts, the mitral valve closes, preventing blood from flowing backwards from the left ventricle to the left atrium. The left ventricle ejects blood across the aortic valve into the aorta and the rest of the body. Then the aortic valve closes, preventing blood from flowing backwards from the body into the left ventricle. Of course in reality, blood flows to both sides of the heart at the same time, with heart valves on both sides opening and closing at the same time.

How does a bicycle tube valve work?
Bicycle tube valves are one-way valves. They let air pass one way, then holds it in.
How does the valves work?
Venal bloodflow is at relatively low pressure, relative to that of the arteries. Because of this, there is always the risk of blood flowing in the opposite direction. This is where valves come in - they prevent the backflow of blood in the veins.
How does a 4 way pneumatic valve work?
Moduflex dual valve combines two, 4-way valves into one valve body, it features two independently operated valves in the Size 1 valve body. :)
How does computing valve work?
Just like the valves used in valve stereo equipment or old radios. Except in computers (like the transistors in modern computers) valves are usually driven fully into saturation and cutoff, while in a valve stereo or old radio valves are usually operated as linear amplifiers with minimal distortion.
Why isn't the drain valve in the orbit misting system not misting?
Drain valves are not designed to mist. They are designed to evacuate liquid that is still in the line after the water is turned off. A manufacturer in Arizona (AmFog Nozzle Technologies) has information on their website for drain valves and misting nozzles; their YouTube videos also explain how the drain valves and misting nozzles work.

When valves of veins do not function properlythey are referred to as competent valves?
They would be considered incompetent valves because they are not working properly. You need all the vein valves to work properly for maximum functioning.
What is the work of valves?
Valves - allow fluids or gases to only flow in one direction. They're control devices.

Will Slide oil work on valves?
It will go in the valves but it's not good for your Trumpet..
Do veins have valves and arteries don't?
veins have valves because they bring blood from the bottom half of your body and valves stop the back flow of blood since the veins work against gravity.

Do pig and human valves work the same?
Yes, they do. They are exactly the same. The pig heart valves will last about 15 years. Sometime cows are used for these xenotransplants.
How do the valves work?
You'll need to be more specific, since valves are used in many different applications. What type valves are you posting your inquiry? Since the topic is under "new electrical work", one might assume that you are asking about electrically operated valves or valves with position sensors, or you may be asking about the old "vacuum tubes", which in much of the world are referred to as "valves". Answering all of those questions would end up being a dissertation, and probably more than would be appropriate for Answers.com The valves of the heart prevent the blood that is pumped out from flowing back to the heart or backward in veins.
