Valves are opened by applying force to a mechanism that moves the valve's disc or gate away from its seat. This can be achieved manually through a handwheel, automatically via an actuator (electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic), or through changes in pressure or temperature in the case of specific types of valves. The method used depends on the valve design and its intended application.
