Engineers from Flowserve recently collaborated with NASA engineers to create a valve that would be easier to install and maintain, allow for trim size changes and minimize inventory requirements. Combining NASA’s experience with high-pressure aerospace applications with Flowserve’s design and testing experience, the team generated a set of technical solutions that met NASA’s requirements for high-pressure, cryogenic, rocket propulsion tests. The new valve design will have multiple applications across the aerospace and industrial gas industries, as well as in markets such as upstream oil and gas and steel.
