Abstract

With special reference to gerotor lube pumps the paper details how a simulation environment can be instrumental in design development. The relevance of testing is stressed as an essential counterpart to simulation. Original modelling techniques are also proposed that provide a unified approach to volumetric pumps studies.

Salvatore Mancò Graduated in Mechanical Engineering (1980) from Politecnico di Torino, Italy. His scientific career started on diesel fuels quality, SI engine supercharging and control, and landed, in the 2nd half of the eighties, on fluid power. S. Mancò main contribution to the Fluid Power Scientific community is on the gear pump field. Since 1992, he is associate professor of Energy Systems at Politecnico di Torino.

Nicola Nervegna, The Fluid Power Research Laboratory at Polytechnic of Turin Politecnico di Torino, Corso Duca degli Abruzzi 24, 10129 Torino, Italia

Nicola Nervegna Graduate in Nuclear Engineering (1971) from Politecnico di Torino, Italy. He joined the Politecnico staff in October 1971 and, at present, is Professor of Fluid Power Systems. His research interests lie in the broad fields of Fluid Power with involvement in positive displacement pumps as well in the modelling, simulation and testing of various hydraulic components.

Massimo Rundo, The Fluid Power Research Laboratory at Polytechnic of Turin Politecnico di Torino, Corso Duca degli Abruzzi 24, 10129 Torino, Italia

Massimo Rundo Graduated in Mechanical Engineering (1996) from Politecnico di Torino. After graduation he participated within the Fluid Power Group of the Politecnico di Torino, as a Magneti Marelli visiting researcher, to an extensive and ongoing research project on gerotor and external gear pumps for internal combustion engines lubrication. He is very active in modelling, simulation and testing of fluid power components.
