Abstract

In a valve housing for a globe valve for controlling a process fluid flow of a process plant (e.g. a chemical plant, petrochemical plant, a power plant, or a food processing plant), a passage opening is provided that can be closed by a valve member movable translationally in a vertical direction. The valve housing may define, in the vertical direction above the passage opening, a working space for accommodating the valve member. The valve housing may define a kettle space in the vertical direction below the passage opening. The valve housing may include at least one guide blade projecting radially into the kettle space for disturbing a process fluid vortex with vertical vortex axis of rotation filling the kettle space.
