Y pattern globe valves allow probably less pressure drop as compared against the T pattern globe valves. I do not have experimentally proven results for this. However the flow pattern in Y Globe valve is more "linear" while that T pattern is more "zigzag". Secondly, height of the valve from its flow bores' center line till top of the hand wheel is less in Y Globe Valves, as compared against the T Globe Valves. This gives compactness to Y Globe Valves - which is beneficial in pipings where space is a constraint. [by Ganesh Devale, Pune - India]

What are the uses of a globe valve?

To throttle the medium being used as a globe is NOT a positive shut off 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. For example, globe valves or valves with a similar mechanism may be used as sampling valves, which are normally shut except when liquid samples are being taken. Since the baffle restricts flow, they're not recommended where full, unobstructed flow is required.

What are the advantages of using a globe show the earth surface?

One advantage to using a globe is that you can more accurately determine distances than you can with a flat map. Flat maps distort the spherical surface and that distortion can be significant over long distances.
