dc.description.abstractThis extensive study is carried out to minimize the pressure drop of a relief valve featuring quick-releasing coupling used in radar systems. The 3D two-phase computational fluid dynamic (CFD) study is verified with the experiments, and Taguchi's orthogonal method is implemented for pressure drop optimization. Realizable k-epsilon turbulence model with enhanced wall treatment and the Schnerr and Sauer cavitation model are enforced within the numerical study. Four angles-the collet angle, the inlet angle, the plug angle, and the outlet angle-are considered at five levels of variation for the orthogonal optimization process. According to the statistical analysis, two more designs are suggested, and one of them resulted in further improved pressure drop performance. Moreover, the cavitation behavior of the proposed design is compared with the base design through water vapor volume fractions. While the water vapor volume fraction of the base design is 0.0045, no vapor formation is observed in the optimized designs at 20 l/min. The results of the proposed design are also validated by the experiments. The outcomes of the study showed that the inlet angle has a significant effect on the pressure drop phenomenon.
