The structure and working principle of a self-deigned high pressure electronic pneumatic pressure reducing valve (EPPRV) with slide pilot are introduced.The resistance value formulas and the relationship between the resistance and pressure of three typical pneumatic resistances are obtained.Then,the method of static characteristics analysis only considering pneumatic resistances is proposed,the resistance network from gas supply to load is built up,and the mathematical model is derived from the flow rate formulas and flow conservation equations,with the compressibility of high pressure gas and temperature drop during the expansion considered in the model.Finally,the pilot spool displacement of 1.5 mm at an output pressure of 15MPa and the enlarging operating stroke of the pilot spool are taken as optimization targets,and the optimization is carried out based on genetic algorithm and the model mentioned above.The results show that the static characteristics of the EPPRV are significantly improved.The idea of static characteristics analysis and optimization based on pneumatic resistance network is valuable for the design of pneumatic components or system.
Through the study on the output signals of the electro-hydraulic regulating system in the thermal power plant, a novel method for online diagnosis of the plugging fault in the servo valve is presented. With the use of the AMESIM software, the changes of the piston displacement, the oil pressure, the magnitude attenuation and the phase lag of the system under different plugging states are studied after simulation. Besides, the influences of the symmetrical and unsymmetrical plugging on the system are also compared and the characteristic table is given. The duo-neural network is put forward to achieve an online diagnosis on the plugging fault of the servo valve. The first level of network helps to make the qualitative diagnosis of the plugging position while the second level is for the quantitative diagnosis of the degree of the plugged position. The research results show that plugging at different positions exerts different influences on the performance of the system. The unsymmetrical plugging mainly affects the regulation time while the symmetrical plugging leads to great changes in the magnitude attenuation and the phase lag.
In this paper, single, two-position, two-way proportional valve is used to carry out the positon control of asymmetrical hydraulic cylinder with two chambers connected. The system structure and the working princle are introduced. The dynamic model of the asymmetrical hydraulic cylinder system is established with power bond graphs method, and becomes a fundament for analyzing the system. Sliding mode controller is designed, and the stability of the control system is analyzed. The simulation results indicate that the sliding mode controller designed can actualize the position control of asymmetrical hydraulic cylinder system, and controller is superior to traditional PID controller when the load changes in some range.
The high pressure pneumatic system has been applied to special industries.It may cause errors when we analyze high pressure pneumatics under ideal gas assumption.However,the real gas effect on the performances of high pressure pneumatics is seldom investigated.In this paper,the real gas effects on air enthalpy and internal energy are estimated firstly to study the real gas effect on the energy conversion.Under ideal gas assumption,enthalpy and internal energy are solely related to air temperature.The estimation result indicates that the pressure enthalpy and pressure internal energy of real pneumatic air obviously decrease the values of enthalpy and internal energy for high pressure pneumatics,and the values of pressure enthalpy and pressure internal energy are close.Based on the relationship among pressure,enthalpy and internal energy,the real gas effects on charging and discharging processes of high pressure pneumatics are estimated,which indicates that the real gas effect accelerates the temperature and pressure decreasing rates during discharging process,and decelerates their increasing rates during charging process.According to the above analysis,and for the inconvenience in building the simulation model for real gas and the difficulty of measuring the detail thermal capacities of pneumatics,a method to compensate the real gas effect under ideal gas assumption is proposed by modulating the thermal capacity of the pneumatic container in simulation.The experiments of switching expansion reduction(SER) for high pressure pneumatics are used to verify this compensating method.SER includes the discharging process of supply tanks and the charging process of expansion tank.The simulated and experimental results of SER are highly consistent.The proposed compensation method provides a convenient way to obtain more realistic simulation results for high pressure pneumatics.
A single on/off valve is used to carry out the position control of the asymmetrical hydraulic cylinder. The inuence of the nominal flow rate on the positional accuracy of piston is investigated and the proximate formula for calculating the nominal flow rate of on/off valve is introduced. The system structure proposed in this paper could avoid cavitation and hyper pressure in two chambers to some extent. The simulation results indicated that the control method in this paper could satisfy the expected control requirements.
