A solid wedge valve has a solid construction which provides strength and durability but may be prone to trapping fluids. On the other hand, a flexible wedge valve has a split construction allowing the two halves to adjust to changes in temperature and thereby minimize the risk of trapping fluids. Flexible wedge valves are often preferred for applications where there are temperature variations or potential for fluid entrainment.

What are sodium cooled valves and how they work?

Sodium is a solid at room temperature and becomes a liquid at 97.5 degrees Celsius. Sodium cooled valves are exhaust valves in a cylinder head of an engine that open to release exhaust gasses that were formed due to combustion of fuel and air inside the cylinders and typically get very hot. The sodium cooled valves and exhaust valves filled with sodium inside, the sodium helps the valves be cooler than if they were just solid.
