Thus it’s more and more essential to know the flow characteristic inside the valve. Due to the fast progress of the flow simulation and numerical technique, it becomes possib le to observe the flows inside a valve and to estimate the performance of a valve. This paper presents the modeling and simulation of the globe valves. The flow system with globe valves is complex structure and has non-linear characteristics, because the construction and the hydraulic phenomena are associated of globe valves. In this paper, three-dimensional CFD simulations were conducted to observe the flow patterns and to measure valve flow coefficient when globe valve with different flow rate and constant pressure drop across the valve were used in a valve system. Furthermore, the results of the three-dimensional analysis can be used in the design of low noise and high efficiency valve for industry. Keywords –Globe valves, CFD, Valve coefficient I. INTRODUCTION A control valve is a mechanical device that controls the flow of fluid and pressure within a system or process. A control valve controls system or process fluid flow and pressure by performing different functions like stopping and starting fluid flow, varying (throttling) the amount of fluid flow, controlling the direction o
