Zusammenfassung:	Features of the movement of liquid in the output channel of a wedge gate valve as a function of the angle of taper of the channel are investigated. A program of finite-element analysis is used as the tool of the investigation. From the results of numerical modeling (ANSYS program), it is established that the optimal value of the angle of taper is 8° if the working medium is water. The results presented in the article may be used to improve the designs of gate valves.
