Definition of cv and kv
The flow coefficient - Cv - and the flow factor - Kv - are commonly used to specify the capacity of control valves.

Flow Coefficient - Cv
It is often convenient to express the capacities and flow characteristics of control valves in terms of the

Flow Coefficient - Cv
The flow coefficient - Cv - is based on the imperial units system and is defined as:

the flow of water through a valve at 60 oF in US gallon/minute at a pressure drop of 1 lb/in2
The flow coefficient is commonly used in the U.S.

Flow Factor - Kv
The metric equivalent of the flow coefficient - Cv - is based on the SI-system and is called the

Flow Factor - Kv
The flow factor - Kv - is defined as

the flow of water with temperature ranging 5 - 30 oC through a valve in cubic meters per hour (m3/h) with a pressure drop of 1 bar
