Abstract
A method and apparatus for conducting and directing the flow of fluid. A movable core within the flow valve has openings which can be aligned or misaligned with an inlet, outlet, and bypass tap hole on the flow valve body thereby either blocking the flow of fluid, allowing the flow of fluid directly through the valve, allowing the fluid to flow directly through the valve as well as to the bypass tap hole, or only allowing the flow of fluid to the bypass tap hole.
