How to use "Valve" in context?
When it comes to pumps and valves, there are few things more important than combustion. In engines, valves allow exhaust and intake gases to travel freely, which spark the combustion process that powers the engine. Thermal valves, meanwhile, allow airfuel ratios to be controlled in piston-driven engines.
The variety of valves available is immense, which is why it's important to have the right one for the job. From diaphragms and poppets to exhaust valves and intake valves, there are many types of valves for different applications. Many valves also come fitted with springs, which help to regulate the flow of intake and exhaust gases.
