M. A. Fedorova, M. W. Tofique, A. Löf, C. Millward, Z. Günther. Testing and calculation of impact fatigue strength of Flap-X and SS 716 flapper valve steel grades / trans from Engl... by M. A. Fedorova

“…The higher impact fatigue strength of the Flap-X grade, lower failure rate and longer impact fatigue life will allow the compressor manufacturers to design thinner valves, as Flap-X can sustain higher impact fatigue stresses reliably for longer time and, at the same time help reduce noise, as thinner valves produce less noise for a given pressure and frequency.…”
