Low-Turbulence Valve
Abstract
Valve opens and closes ports without introducing significant turbulence to fluid passing through. Developed for experiment involving mixing of solutions by diffusion. Allows diffusion of contents between adjacent chambers with minimum turbulent mixing. Holes in valve plates rotated clockwise into alignment to open valve and counterclockwise out of alignment to close valve. Stopping pin limits overall rotation to 120 degrees for opening and closing.
