Valve structure: Different types of ball valve structures (such as full bore ball valves, drag reducing fluid design ball valves, etc.) will have different effects on fluid pressure loss. Designing more streamlined and larger ball valves typically results in smaller pressure losses.

2. Fluid velocity: The velocity of the fluid when passing through a ball valve has a significant impact on pressure loss. The higher the fluid velocity, the greater the kinetic energy loss of the fluid, resulting in significant pressure loss.
3. Valve opening: The opening of a ball valve can affect the resistance of fluid passing through the valve, and a smaller opening can lead to greater resistance and pressure loss.
4. Fluid properties: The density, viscosity, and compressibility of the fluid can also affect the resistance and pressure loss of the fluid when passing through a ball valve.
5. Elbow and pipeline layout: Factors such as pipe bends, branches, and pipeline layout before and after valves can also affect pressure loss.
