    Abstract: A fluid-flow control device includes a valve aperture and a mounting member arranged downstream of the aperture. A valve member, movably mounted on the mounting member, controls the flow of fluid through the aperture. A control volume, defined between the mounting member and the valve member receives a control fluid from a control fluid feed. A variable flow restrictor is rotatably arranged within a restriction volume of the control fluid feed such that a flow path connecting the inlet, and the outlet, of the restriction volume is defined between the restrictor and the wall of the restriction volume. The restrictor is axi-symmetric about its axis of rotation.
