This study designed a new type of intelligent thermostatic mixing valve which could keep the temperature and flux of the outlet water constant by the adaptive controller. It firstly established mathematical model of the valve about angle-flux and angle-temperature and then it applied the "Fluent" software to numerical simulation of the valve about flow field based on the two-equation turbulence model. Finally, it designed the intelligent controller hardware and developed the controlling software of the valve. With the controller and it finished experiments with the thermostatic valve prototype. The results of simulation and experiments prove that the correctness of the theoretical research and they can be used to improve designing of the thermostatic valve.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
