Book Design and Validation of an Electro hydraulic Pressure control Valve and Closed loop Controller

Download or read book Design and Validation of an Electro hydraulic Pressure control Valve and Closed loop Controller written by Jerry Boza and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electro-hydraulic pressure-control valves are used in many applications, such as manufacturing equipment, agricultural machinery, and aircrafts to name a few. They are often used to actuate hydraulic clutches, such as those found in power shift transmissions. A traditional pressure-control valve with open-loop control algorithm is typically used in clutch applications. This scheme often results in inconsistent or undesirable system behavior due to the nature of open-loop control as well as the nonlinear system dynamics and uncertainties. In this research two new electro-hydraulic pressure-control valves were designed in order to decouple the valve and control port (hydraulic) dynamics. This was achieved by removing the regulated pressure balancing force utilized in traditional pressure-control valves. Different closed-loop controllers were designed and tested in parallel in order to achieve the desired steady-state and dynamic regulated pressure response. A nonlinear dynamic model was developed for each valve then used to compare the performance characteristics of the valves. Linear analysis was performed and various control techniques were studied from classical PID control to modern optimal control. The model was also used to predict performance of the closed-loop controllers prior to experimental testing and to validate experimentally tuned controllers afterwards. Prototype valves were fabricated in order to validate the model and to test the controller designs experimentally. Different valve and controller combinations were compared to a traditional pressure-control valve utilizing open-loop control through typical industry performance tests. This study found that a valve with a traditional pressure-control pilot and a main stage spool with no pressure balancing force, along with a gain scheduled PID controller, outperformed the traditional valve in all areas tested. This approach is also feasible within the existing infrastructure of most applications where the benchmark traditional valve is currently used.

Book Fundamentals of Tractor Design

Download or read book Fundamentals of Tractor Design written by Karl Theodor Renius and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-10-28 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook offers a comprehensive review of tractor design fundamentals. Discussing more than hundred problems and including about six hundred international references, it offers a unique resource to advanced undergraduate and graduate students, researchers and also practical engineers, managers, test engineers, consultants and even old-timer fans. Tractors are the most important pieces of agricultural mechanization, hence a key factor of feeding the world. In order to address the educational needs of both less and more developed countries, the author included fundamentals of simple but proved designs for tractors with moderate technical levels, along with extensive information concerning modern, premium tractors. The broad technical content has been structured according to five technology levels, addressing all components. Relevant ISO standards are considered in all chapters. The book covers historical highlights, tractor project management (including cost management), traction mechanics, tires (including inflation control), belt ground drives, and ride dynamics. Further topics are: chassis design, diesel engines (with emission limits and installation instructions), all important types of transmissions, topics in machine element design, and human factors (health, safety, comfort). Moreover, the content covers tractor-implement management systems, in particular ISOBUS automation and hydraulic systems. Cumulative damage fundamentals and tractor load spectra are described and implemented for dimensioning and design verification. Fundamentals of energy efficiency are discussed for single tractor components and solutions to reduce the tractor CO2 footprint are suggested.

Book Automotive Mechatronics  Operational and Practical Issues

Download or read book Automotive Mechatronics Operational and Practical Issues written by B. T. Fijalkowski and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-11-25 with total page 585 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents operational and practical issues of automotive mechatronics with special emphasis on the heterogeneous automotive vehicle systems approach, and is intended as a graduate text as well as a reference for scientists and engineers involved in the design of automotive mechatronic control systems. As the complexity of automotive vehicles increases, so does the dearth of high competence, multi-disciplined automotive scientists and engineers. This book provides a discussion into the type of mechatronic control systems found in modern vehicles and the skills required by automotive scientists and engineers working in this environment. Divided into two volumes and five parts, Automotive Mechatronics aims at improving automotive mechatronics education and emphasises the training of students’ experimental hands-on abilities, stimulating and promoting experience among high education institutes and produce more automotive mechatronics and automation engineers. The main subject that are treated are: VOLUME I: RBW or XBW unibody or chassis-motion mechatronic control hypersystems; DBW AWD propulsion mechatronic control systems; BBW AWB dispulsion mechatronic control systems; VOLUME II: SBW AWS diversion mechatronic control systems; ABW AWA suspension mechatronic control systems. This volume was developed for undergraduate and postgraduate students as well as for professionals involved in all disciplines related to the design or research and development of automotive vehicle dynamics, powertrains, brakes, steering, and shock absorbers (dampers). Basic knowledge of college mathematics, college physics, and knowledge of the functionality of automotive vehicle basic propulsion, dispulsion, conversion and suspension systems is required.
