Control valves Globe Valves -->most widely used The advantages: -simplicity of spring and diaphragm actuatorv -great

variety of specialezed design -low likelihood of cavitation and noise -linear relationship between control signal and valve stem -small deadband and hysteresis The disadvantages: -high cost -low speed and low stiffness (affected by fluid force) --> can be minimized by using positioner Rotary Valves The advantages : -low cost and higher capacity -weigh less -easier to seal the stem Thedisadvantages : -great tendency for noise and cavitation -nonlinear relationship with control signal -the linkage introduce some hysteresis there is definite requirement for using positioner which will slower the response
