HVAC Control Valve Sizing using Cv | HVAC Control Valve Selection Made Simple

Struggling with HVAC control valve sizing using Cv? This video explains everything in a simple, practical way with real examples so you can confidently size and select valves in your projects.

In this video, you’ll learn:
✔ What is Cv (Flow Coefficient) in valves
✔ Why Cv is defined at 1 psi pressure drop
✔ How to use Cv in real HVAC systems
✔ Why control valve pressure drop is kept between 3 to 10 psi
✔ Step-by-step Cv calculation formula
✔ Real examples with 450 GPM, 300 GPM & 80 Cv cases
✔ Common mistakes in valve sizing and how to avoid them

This is a must-watch for:
