Abstract
The first generations of servo valves, which were developed for aero and industrial applications, incorporated rectangular control orifices in order to provide linear flow characteristics. In later versions of servo valves and particularly in the more recent generation of proportional control valves rectangular control orifices were replaced by round orifices, mainly to reduce manufacturing costs. In this chapter the characteristics of round control orifices and their effect on valve parameters will be examined.
