DYNAMIC MODELLING AND PARAMETRIC STUDIES OF AN INDEXING VALVE PLATE PUMP
Keywords:

The swash-plate in a variable displacement pump experiences very large forces and moments that try to dislocate its position; therefore, a large device is required for adequate control. In this paper, the dynamics of an alternative pump design using an indexing valve plate to position the swash-plate are reported. The indexing valve plate design is aimed at controlling the pressure transition for a piston, which is moving from a high-pressure port to a low-pressure port. In this paper, the governing equations for the pump are derived and the detailed open-loop and parametric studies, which are necessary for understanding the overall dynamic characteristics of the pump, are reported. Also, full nonlinear and simplified modelling approaches for the system are compared.
