👉 Valves engineering is the specialized field focused on the design, development, and maintenance of valves used in various fluid control systems across industries such as oil and gas, water treatment, chemical processing, and power generation. These valves regulate, direct, and control the flow of liquids, gases, or slurries by opening, closing, or partially obstructing a pipeline. Engineers in this field consider factors like fluid properties, pressure and temperature conditions, material compatibility, and operational requirements to design valves that ensure efficient, safe, and reliable operation. They also focus on minimizing energy losses, preventing leaks, and ensuring easy maintenance, often employing advanced materials and technologies like smart sensors for real-time monitoring and control.
