Abstract
Load deviation and flow variation are the two main factors affecting accuracy of hydraulic synchronous drive using flow dividers. This paper proposes a novel loading-sensing flow division principle, which could resist large load deviations and flow changes. Based on the principle, a load-sensing flow dividing valve (LFDV) is developed, combing with multiple functions of load sensing, flow distribution and speed regulation, which establishes a dynamic link between the pump source and the loads by load sensing. This paper describes the new flow division principle, designs the LFDV strcture, establishes a simulation model, and develops a LFDV prototype, and finally test its diverter characteristics under the conditions of time-varying loads and flow variations. The test results indicate that the proposed flow divider is almost not affected by load deviations and suitable for wide flow ranges, and its division accuracy is about 0.2 %–0.5 %, which is more than 10 times that of traditional flow dividers. This study provides a new principle and solution for hydraulic synchronous drives with high precision, high reliability and low cost.
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.
