When selecting a control valve for an application, the calculated C v is used to determine the valve size and the trim size that will allow the valve to pass the desired flow rate and provide stable control of the process fluid. Pressure Profile Fluid flowing through a control valve obeys the basic laws of conservation of mass and energy, and the
