Abstract
To enhance the working performance of the axial piston motor, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software was employed to investigate the flow field characteristics of the axial piston motor. This paper presents a new type of damping groove and conducted three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics transient simulations on the unequal and new damping groove designs of the distribution plate. Pressure, flow rate fluctuation, and cavitation phenomena were measured under various structural parameters to verify the simulation results. The experimental results indicate that a well-designed distribution plate can not only reduce the pressure fluctuation of the motor but also enhance its anti-cavitation performance. Additionally, appropriately adjusting the structural parameters of the damping groove can effectively suppress the cavitation phenomenon to a certain extent. This can efficiently reduce the noise and vibration caused by cavitation, thereby significantly improving the reliability and lifespan of the axial piston motor.
期刊介绍:
Flow Measurement and Instrumentation is dedicated to disseminating the latest research results on all aspects of flow measurement, in both closed conduits and open channels. The design of flow measurement systems involves a wide variety of multidisciplinary activities including modelling the flow sensor, the fluid flow and the sensor/fluid interactions through the use of computation techniques; the development of advanced transducer systems and their associated signal processing and the laboratory and field assessment of the overall system under ideal and disturbed conditions.
FMI is the essential forum for critical information exchange, and contributions are particularly encouraged in the following areas of interest:
Modelling: the application of mathematical and computational modelling to the interaction of fluid dynamics with flowmeters, including flowmeter behaviour, improved flowmeter design and installation problems. Application of CAD/CAE techniques to flowmeter modelling are eligible.
Design and development: the detailed design of the flowmeter head and/or signal processing aspects of novel flowmeters. Emphasis is given to papers identifying new sensor configurations, multisensor flow measurement systems, non-intrusive flow metering techniques and the application of microelectronic techniques in smart or intelligent systems.
Calibration techniques: including descriptions of new or existing calibration facilities and techniques, calibration data from different flowmeter types, and calibration intercomparison data from different laboratories.
Installation effect data: dealing with the effects of non-ideal flow conditions on flowmeters. Papers combining a theoretical understanding of flowmeter behaviour with experimental work are particularly welcome.
