Butterfly valve refers to a kind of valve whose closing part (butterfly plate) is a disc, which rotates around the valve shaft to achieve opening and closing. It mainly plays a role of cutting off and throttling on the pipeline. The butterfly valve opening and closing part is a disc-shaped butterfly plate, which rotates around its own axis in the valve body to achieve the purpose of opening and closing or adjustment. The butterfly valve is usually 90° from fully open to fully closed. The butterfly valve is simple in structure, small in size and light in weight, and consists of only a few parts. Moreover, it can be opened and closed quickly by rotating 90°, and the operation is simple.
The opening and closing part of the gate valve is a gate. The movement direction of the gate is perpendicular to the direction of the fluid. The gate valve can only be fully opened and fully closed, and cannot be adjusted or throttled. The gate has two sealing surfaces. The advantages of the gate valve: small fluid resistance, less effort to open and close, no restriction on the flow of the medium, no turbulence, no pressure reduction
a gate valve is a one way totally open or closed valve, a control valve is a variable valve.
A Knife Gate Valve is used to slice through sludge /sewerage and a gate is used fro normal positive shut off If you want to find the photo of Knife Gate Valve,you can enter to the link:http://www.kolinkcn.com/

the gate and the 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.
The difference is that a sluice gate is made out of cast iron while a slide gate isn't.

The Gate valve is the stop valve & the Globe valve is the fluid Regulating valve.
An air valve is a spring loaded plastic valve for ventilation. A gate valve is an old fashioned type of water valve where turning a handle lowers a blocking gate over the water inlet. Any sensible plumber now uses ball valves instead.
a gate valve is a valve you turn the handle round and round until it shuts off a ball valve is a valve with a lever that you turn 1/4 turn and its off hope this helps plumber paul
Basically these two valves differ in their construction and also in operation. In case of gate valve, there is a round or rectangular wedge in the path of fluid which when lifted opens the valve. Gate valves are designed to operate at fully open or fully close condition. When fully open, the typical gate valve has no obstruction in the flow path, resulting in very low friction loss. In case of butterfly valve there is a flat circular plate is positioned in the center of pipe.The plate has a rod through it connected to an actuator on the outside of the valve. Rotating the actuator turns the plate either parallel or perpendicular to the flow. As the plate is always present within the flow, there is a pressure drop always induced in the flow regardless of valve position.
Because the inner area where the fluid moves has a gate which is shaped like a butterfliys wings. Passing through the centre of this gate is a rod which ends outside the valve where the handle is attached. When the gate is open it allows flow, when closed the gate seals off the valve stopping flow or if require can be partially turned to restrict flow
A check valve allows for flow in one direction and a gate valve is used for positive shut off and a globe valve is used for throttling
