However, its dynamic properties are not good enough for application. In this paper, in order to increase the output characteristics, a late-model air-powered vehicle using expansion energy is proposed which can boost energy through a pneumatic-hydraulic transmission. The dynamic characteristics of the air-powered vehicle is modeled and verified by conducting experiment. In addition,the influence of the key parameters of the air-powered vehicle is researched for the optimization of the system performance. Through the results, the author got the conclusion that, firstly, comparison of the results of model and experiment proves the built model to be effective; secondly, input air pressure should be set according to the request of the practical loads, and range of 0.65 to 0.75 MPa can be chosen; thirdly, as a key structure parameter of the airpowered vehicle, ratio of the areas is considered to be set to approximate 8; what’s more, a bigger orifice with a limit will promote the system dynamic characteristic property, and the limit is about 3.5 mm; last but not the least, not too farther position of the rings will increase the quality of output dynamic characteristics. This paper can be a reference for system design of air-powered vehicle and dynamic improvement.展开更多

Through analysis of the boosting process of an air-driven booster, the basic mathematical model of working processes can be set up. By selecting the appropriate reference values, the basic mathematical model is transformed to a dimensionless expression. Using MATLAB/Simulink for simulation and studying the booster experimentally, the dimensionless outlet flow characteristics of the booster were obtained and the simulation results agree well with the experimental results. Through analysis, it can be seen that the dimensionless outlet flow of the booster is mainly determined by the dimensionless input pressure of the driving chamber, the dimensionless outlet condition pressure of the booster and the dimensionless area of the piston in the driving chamber. The dimensionless average outlet flow becomes larger with an increasing dimensionless input pressure of the driving chamber, but it becomes smaller with an increase in the dimen- sionless outlet condition pressure of the booster. Especially when the dimensionless outlet condition pressure is approximately 1.4, the dimensionless average outlet flow reaches zero. With an increase in the dimensionless area of the piston in the driving chamber, the dimensionless average outlet flow increases and peaks at approximately 1.89, and after this peak, it starts to decrease. This research can be referred to in the design of air-driven boosters.展开更多
