Summary: | A valve assembly includes a sleeve with an inlet and an outlet. A spool is slideably disposed within an interior of the sleeve and is movable along a spool movement axis defined by the sleeve between first and second positions such a flow area between the inlet and outlet is greater when the spool is in the second position than when the spool is in the first position. An aperture plate seats within the sleeve inlet and is axially adjacent to the spool. The aperture plate defines a core flow and a flow-directing aperture to center and straighten a fluid flow entering the sleeve inlet. |
