Hi all ,

would you please share with us the  PDF  that explain the basic regarding the control valve especially in flow characteristics and valve sizing? what are the questions that expected in this topic?

thanks,

 
I find this pdf to be very helpful. I printed it and put it into my binder.
https://www.cedengineering.com/userfiles/Control Valves Basics - Sizing & Selection.pdf

Types of questions you might get:
1. Calculating Cv for a certain system 
2. Selecting a valve for a particular application using Cv
3. Something about the difference between quick opening, linear, and equal percentage valves (Selecting a particular type from the Cv% - Valve opening % chart for given flow characteristics)
4. Calculating a valve rangeability
5. Identifying a certain valve from a PID diagram

 
Thanks a lot it is very helpful PDF to understand tha basic of control valve

Are you asking for basic control valve sizing literature?  If so, just google "Fisher Control Valve Sourcebook".

 
Thanks for sharing the PDF..in addition there is a section in ASHRAE equipment book on control valve sizing..
