Only device to connect to three pipes
Compatible with incompressible calculations (pipes/ducts)
Quick and easy setup
Group editing allows quick changes
Save common valves to device library
Flexible operations
User can assign assign pipes to valve ports
Minimal data entry only requiring Cv/Kv per port
Simulate converging flow
Mixing valve with two flows coming together
Common example is shower/faucet where hot and cold water are mixed for desired temperature
Simulate diverging flow
Used in applications where T port three way valves are desired
Split one stream into two
Common in HVAC and industrial applications
