Design, simulation, and experimental analysis of water hydraulic artificial muscle joint flow replenishment valve
The movement speed and energy consumption of the water hydraulic artificial muscle joint (WHAMJ) increase with the increase of the control valve flow rate. To achieve both fast movement speed and low energy consumption, a new-type flow replenishment valve was proposed. The flow replenishment valve is connected between the pressure difference valve and the WHAMJ. It opens when the WHAMJ is moving to increase the movement speed, and closes when the WHAMJ is stable to prevent additional flow rate generation. Based on the principle, several flow replenishment structure forms were designed, and the simulation analysis was carried out. Through comparison, the best replenishment form was chosen, and a prototype was manufactured. The replenishment effect was further analyzed by experiments. The results show that the flow replenishment valve can increase the WHAMJ speed without affecting the steady system flow rate, improving the practicability of the valve-controlled WHAMJs.
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.
