Abstract

See full text

A fluid valve includes a valve body having a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet connected by a fluid passageway. A valve seat is disposed within the fluid passageway. A fluid control member is movably disposed within the fluid passageway, the fluid control member cooperating with the valve seat to control fluid flow through the fluid passageway. A seal assembly is disposed within the valve body, the seal assembly preventing fluid from leaking through the valve body when the fluid control member is in a closed position. The seal assembly is made, at least in part, from a shape-memory alloy.
