Abstract：In order to solve the problem of common air inbreathe-release valves cannot exhaust continuously under the condition of gas and liquid intervalin large-scale irrigation pipe networks, a new type of air inbreathe-release valvewith principle of pressure distribution was designed. The numerical simulation and physical modeling test were used to study on exhaust process and air displacement under the conditions of different valve openings and different exhaust pressure differences. The effects of valve opening degree and exhaust pressure difference on internal flow in the main valve cavity and valve exhaust volume was verified. The deviations of measured values and numerical results were between 0.08% and 6.43%, which verified the correctness of the numerical simulation.The physical test measured the maximum exhaust volume of new DN50 air inbreathe-release valve. The exhaust volumes of new air inbreathe-release valve exceed 27.31% and 21.71% which specified in the rela ted industry specifications when the exhaust pressure difference is 0.035 MPa and 0.070 MPa. Its exhaust performance is good.
