A valve is a mechanism that opens and closes to control the flow of fluids. In a scientific context, fluids include both liquids and gases â any substance that can flow freely â and valves may use either. Valves control fluid flow in motors, plumbing, irrigation, pneumatic and hydraulic systems.
Gate valve, one of the most widely applied valves, is a valve that opens by lifting a gate/wedge out of the path of the fluid. The gate faces of gate valve could be a wedge shape or be parallel. Gate valves are not suitable for regulating flow, having been designed to be fully opened or closed.ate valve, one of the most widely applied valves, is a valve that opens by lifting a gate/wedge out of the path of the fluid.
