Looking for Flow Coefficients for Poppet Valves utilized in Regenerative Thermal Oxidizers (RTOs)

I had a coworker once tell me there is a great textbook that has a list of flow coefficients for poppet valves, but he cannot remember the name or author of the textbook. If anyone knows of a textbook, or other source, where I can find these values, please let me know.

Below is an example of the type of poppet valve I am referring to.

Think you have no choice but to ask the poppet valve manufacturer. Can you list details of this valve here ( manufacturer, model no, size, type etc ) - readers may be able to search the net for you also.
 
Also that picture is a schematic. Doesn't give antibes any real idea what type of valve you actually mean
 
I apologize for the late response. I do not know what you mean by antibes. However, I believe I have discovered an answer to my question. Thank you for replying to my post.

Unfortunately, that is not possible. I apologize but I cannot give much more details.
 
Antibes was an auto correct. I meant "anyone"....

You need to file up some data to give people a chance.
