What is the three-cusp valve regulating blood flow?

What is stopcock?
An externally operated valve regulating the flow of a liquid inside a pipe.
How is the flow rate of gas controlled as it leaves a storage container?
By a pressure regulating valve- or regulator.
Difference between globe valve and gate valve?
The Gate valve is the stop valve & the Globe valve is the fluid Regulating valve.
What is the difference between gate valve and globe valve?
The external housing (shell) of gate and globe valves are similar, but the globe valve is designed to serve as a regulating valve, meaning that it can adjust the flow by the percentage of the opening. However, the gate valve is not designed to regulate flow, but to stop the flow. A gate valve should always be either fully open or fully closed. The main difference is in the form of the inner elements and the form of the flow inside the valves. In addition, the gate valve may have a rising or non rising stem while the globe valve is typically a rising stem design. The direction of flow through a gate valve is not important. However a globe valve has a flow direction indicated on the outer shell (body) which indicates the direction of flow from beneath the seat. In a gate valve, the closure element is a plate or disk which travels parallel to the plane of the seat. The gate in a dam is a well known example. In a globe valve, the closure element is usually called a "poppet", and it travels perpendicular to the plane of the seat. There are specific advantages and disadvantages to each type depending on the application. The application for a globe valve is regulating flow. It is not well suited for full stop isolation. The gate valve is an isolation valve and not designed to regulate flow.
Is a ball valve a regulating valve?
no
What is the difference between a globe valve and a ball valve?
The Globe valves are generally used to control the flow rate and ball valve used for open /close purpose only.A globe valve is a type of valve used for regulating flow in a pipeline, consisting of a movable disk-type element and a stationary ring seat in a generally spherical body.A ball valve is a valve with a spherical disc, the part of the valve which controls the flow through it.
What control the speed of a piston on a pneumatic motor?
The speed of a pneumatic motor is controlled by regulating the flow of intake air with a proportional control valve Paul Berbakov
What is a temperature regulating valve?
That would be the thermostat.
Why shouldn't a gate valve be used for regulating?
No. Gate valves are designed to be either completely open or completely closed. Regulating flow is best done with a globe or plug valve, or certain kinds of ball valves. A gate valve left partially open will eventually wear down so that it can never be completely closed.
When was WHAI created?
WHAI was created in 1948.
