Stimuli are signals that trigger the senses. Receptors detect the stimuli and neurons send the signals to the brain where they're interpreted. Each sense organ includes receptors that capture relevant stimuli for transmission to the brain. The receptors in the skin are mechanoreceptors and thermoreceptors.
AWWA Butterfly valves are quick opening valves that consist of a metal circular disc or vane with its pivot axes at right angles to the direction of flow in the pipe, which when rotated on a shaft, seals against seats in the valve body. They are normally used as throttling valves to control flow.
Introduction to the Types of Valves Because of the diversity of the types of systems, fluids, and environments in which valves must operate, a vast array of valve types have been developed. Examples of the common types are the globe valve, gate valve, ball valve, plug valve, butterfly valve, diaphragm valve, check valve, pinch valve, and safety valve. Each type of valve has been designed to meet specific needs. Some valves are capable of throttling flow, other valve types can only stop flow, others work
