  • Axial resistance valve trim design
    Patent number: 10094489
    Abstract: A control valve which includes a discrete, multi-stage, multi-path valve trim, located in concentric cylinders, along the outlet axis of the valve, with potential to characterize flow resistance at different opening points.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 2, 2016
    Date of Patent: October 9, 2018
    Assignee: Control Components, Inc.
    Inventors: Stephen G. Freitas, Raymond R. Newton, Daniel Allen Lee Watson, Timo Kubota

  • Nozzle design for high temperature attemperators
    Patent number: 8955773
    Abstract: An improved spray nozzle assembly for use in a steam desuperheating device that is adapted to spray cooling water into a flow of superheated steam. The nozzle assembly is of simple construction with relatively few components, and thus requires a minimal amount of maintenance. In addition, the nozzle assembly is specifically configured to, among other things, prevent thermal shock to prescribed internal structural components thereof, to prevent “sticking” of a valve element thereof, and to create a substantially uniformly distributed spray of cooling water for spraying into a flow of superheated steam in order to reduce the temperature of the steam.
