Abstract: The use of a ball valve as a means of shutting off flow of fluids is by no means a new discovery. It is reported to have been used as a shut-off valve in a samovar many centuries ago. An early version was patented in 1888 for a spigot. The use of a ball valve for many applications has been increasing rapidly in recent years. However, the majority of these have been as on-off valves for shut-off purposes and not for throttling control. In considering the use of a ball valve for throttling service, as shown in Figure 1, an investigation must be made of various characteristics and features.
