Hydraulic Oil Density 870 kg/m3
Absolute viscosity 0.03 Ns/m2
Spool valve discharge coefficient 0.62.

1)

A hydrostatic transmission has a variable displacement axial-piston pump, with a maximum


displacement of 12 cm3/rev, and a fixed capacity motor of 120cm3/rev displacement. The motor
speed is 138 rev/min when driving a load torque of 200Nm and when the pump is set to maximum
displacement and driven at a speed of 1450 rev/min.

Note

This information enables the value of the total leakage and volumetric efficiency to be determined
by calculating the ideal pump flow and motor speed. The total leakage is assumed to be
proportional to the pressure.

If the load is increased to 400 Nm and the pump control set to 50% maximum capacity, estimate:

(a) the steady state speed of the motor (58.5 rev/min)

(b) the input power to the pump and the overall efficiency (3.6 kW, 69%)

The pump mechanical efficiency is 95% at full stroke and 90% at half stroke. The motor
mechanical efficiency is 95%.

2)

a) For the circuit shown in Figure 1, it is required to determine the size of the restrictor ( as a
rated flow) that is to be used during extension of the actuator. For the data given calculate the
rated flow of the restrictor valve (L/min) at a rated pressure drop of 10bar that will provide the
specified actuator velocity. (19L/min)

b) Show how the circuit can be modified in order that the extending actuator velocity will be
controlled when the force is negative (pulling).

c) In order to prevent the actuator velocity changing with changes in the load force a pressure
compensated flow control valve can be used in place of the restrictor valve. Draw a sketch of this
type of valve and briefly describe its method of operation.

i) A four-way spool valve is used to position a hydraulic actuator with a supply pressure of 250 bar.
The valve spool is a fully annular design of 6 mm diameter, with a maximum movement of 0.5 mm
and Cq = 0.62.

For a double ended actuator (equal area) having areas of 12.5 cm2 calculate the maximum power
which can be transmitted to the actuator and its speed and thrust at this condition.
(20.8 x 103 N, 0.46m/s, 9.6 kW)

ii) For an unequal area actuator with zero force conditions show that the ratio of extension velocity
(uE) to retraction velocity (uR) is given by:

iii) For an unequal area actuator having areas of 12.5 and 25 cm2 respectively, and using the valve
and supply pressure in i) calculate the thrust and actuator pressures when extending at 0.49 ms-1.

following equation:

P1
p0 is the precharge pressure
V0 is the stored volume at the precharge pressure
P1 is the minimum pressure required for operation of the system
P2 is the maximum required pressure

Assume that the gas is compressed isothermally from P0 to P2 and expands adiabatically from P2
to P1 with the adiabatic index .

b) A hydraulic actuator is required to perform 60 cycles per hour, each cycle requiring 0.9
litres of oil to operate the actuator in a time of 8s. A fixed displacement pump supplies 1 litre/min to
the system the outlet pressure of which is controlled by a relief valve at a pressure of 100 bar.

Determine the volumetric capacity of the accumulator that is required to operate the system at a
minimum pressure of 75 bar. The precharge pressure is set at 90% of the minimum pressure and
the adiabatic index to be used is 1.6.
