The results indicate that using slide pilot valve in the valve system isfeasible, but the leakage's influences can not be neglected, especially it may induce instability ina low output pressure situation. A pilot valve using too large throttle window will cause the valveoscillate. To improve the working condition of pilot valve, a method adopting different widths oftwo throttle window is proposed. According to our simulation, this method balances the pressure dropbetween the two stage throttle ports, and reduces the influences of pilot valve's leakage.展开更多

An experimental flow visualization technique and anumerical cavitating flow simulation, using a RNG kappa-epsilon turbulence model and a cavitationmodel, are employed to achieve the purpose. In the flow visualization, the cavitation phenomenonnear the orifice of a relief valve is observed using a transparent test valve body model and acamera. On the other hand, a three dimensional cavitating flow simulation is conducted to predictthe cavitation near the orifice of a relief valve. Six types of poppets are designed by changing theshape of a traditional poppet shape, which is expected to influence the cavitating flow in anorifice. In addition, the cavitation noise of a relief valve is measured and the noise spectrum isanalyzed. In conclusion, the cavitation intensity and the cavitation noise are reduced for anoptimal poppet geometry obtained in the present study.展开更多

The influences of pipes and load on dynamic characteristics ofload-sensing system are studied by series of step response experiments. Experimental results showthat the feedback pipe makes the most important influence on the dynamic response speed ofload-sensing system. Its internal diameter should be optimized for given length of pipe. On theother hand, the stability of load-sensing pump is improved as the length of input pipe increases ina certain range. The influence of input pipe on the dynamic response speed is caused mainly by thepressure-wave travel time in the input pipe.展开更多

Based on the characteristics of theclearance flow between the seal and the piston, reasonable boundary conditions for Navier-Stokesequations are determined and the equations are modified, so that the final equations can describethe real flow state of the clearance flow. Through combining the final equations with finite elementmethod, the pressure distributions within the clearance field during the reciprocating motion ofthe piston and the leakage rate with the pressure are studied. The deflections of the seal whichaffect sealing performance are calculated as well. Sealing performance of piston seals using oil asthe working liquid is compared with using water. It is concluded that the seal using water as theworking liquid is under dry friction, which cannot be dealt with the theory of fluid mechanics.

The equations andmethod were used to a paniculate tur-bulent pipe flow. The results show that the turbulent intensityand the Reynolds stress are decreased almost inverse proportion-ally to the fluctuating velocityratio of particle to fluid. Non-spherical particles have a greater suppressing effect on thetur-bulence than the spherical particles. The particles with short re-laxation time reduce theturbulence intensity of fluid, while the particles with long relaxation time increase the turbulenceinten-sity of fluid. For fixed particle and fluid, the small particles sup-press the turbulence andthe large particles increase the turbu-ience.展开更多
