Zusammenfassung:A valve body (10) includes first (12) and second (14) openings, a gallery (16), and first (PI) and second (P2) flow conduit portions. The openings are centered on a central axis of the valve body. The gallery is disposed between the openings and includes a cylindrical space on a gallery axis that is perpendicular to the central axis. The first flow conduit portion extends between the first opening and a side opening (18) of the gallery. The second flow conduit portion extends between the second opening and a bottom opening (20) of the gallery. The second flow conduit portion includes a straight cylindrical conduit section (22b) in communication with and extending away from the bottom opening of the gallery. The straight cylindrical conduit section has a diameter that is equal to or less than a diameter of the bottom opening of the gallery to facilitate fluid flow through the valve body.
