Abstract

715,838. Fluid-pressure actuated valves. NATIONAL RESEARCH DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION. Jan. 9, 1953 [Jan. 10, 1952], No. 757/52. Class 135. [Also in Group VI] Gas or vapour flow controlling apparatus, e.g. for breathing equipment, comprises a pressure reducing valve adapted for connection upstream to a source of gas or vapour under pressure and an orifice downstream of the valve, the reducing valve maintaining the pressure upstream of the orifice at such a value compared with the downstream pressure that the orifice operates at a pressure ratio equal to or less than the critical pressure ratio, i.e. in a choked condition. A valve 4 operated by a spring-loaded diaphragm 3, or piston or bellows, maintains a constant pressure of gas in the chamber 9 supplied via inlet 2a. The orifice 8 allows a supersonic flow of gas therethrough so that the mass flow of gas to a receptacle connected at 2b is unaffected by pressure variations in the receptacle.
