    Spring Design for Emergency Valves of Steam Turbine

    Thank you for you response gerhardl. Steam pressure is 4.2 MPa. valve dia =80 mm. So constant force of 846.46 N acts against the lever in vertically upward direction. And as a project, I am trying to develop this system so commercially available system could be the reference. But I could not...
