Improved Design for Hydraulic Valve and Hydraulic Valve Testing Rig

When we can achieve more than half efficiency in hydraulic valves with the new inventions why not try them? Here we present the new patented design for the hydraulic cone valve which is more efficient than the existing at a reduced pressure loss to one-fifth. Additional to the new hydraulic valve design, a new universal hydraulic valve testing rig is also proposed in such a way that it can be used to test any kind of valves with a high-pressure range and easy setup. All the design and development work has been carried out at Halmstad University in Sweden.
