Abstract The output flow ripple of the axial piston pump is one of the excitation sources for the hydraulic system vibration. The amplitudes of its specific harmonics must be reduced to avoid the resonance with the hydraulic pipeline. In this paper, a method on the nonuniform distribution of the pistons is put forward to adjust the flow ripple. The deflection angles of the pistons are used to describe the distribution rule. The distribution rule is imported to the Fourier expansion of the flow rate of each single-piston chamber, and then every single flow rate is superposed to obtain the Fourier coefficient of total flow rate that becomes the function of deflection angles. After this, objective optimization design is carried out to reduce the amplitudes of specific harmonics. Finally, the dynamic simulation model of the nonuniformly distributed axial piston pump is established to verify the effects of objective optimization. The results show that the amplitude of the ninth harmonic of the flow ripple can be reduced by about 40%, and the reductions are about 99% for the 18th and 27th harmonic.

The triangular damping groove on the valve plate can effectively reduce the discharge flow ripple of an axial piston pump, which structural parameters will directly affect the pump’s dynamic characteristics. Herein, a multi-parameter data-based structure optimizing method of the triangular damping groove is investigated using numerical models and simulation results. The mathematical models of a nine-piston pump are proposed and developed by MATLAB/Simulink, and the simulation results are verified by experimental results. Then, the effects of width angle and depth angle on discharge flow are analyzed. Based on the analysis of groove parameters, an optimizing index, which considering the time domain characteristics of discharge flow, is proposed. As results show, comparing with the initial specific groove structure, the amplitude of flow ripple is reduced from 14.6% to 9.8% with the optimized structure. The results demonstrate that the outlet flow ripple can be significantly reduced by the optimized structure, and the proposed multi-parameter optimizing method can play a guiding significance in the design of low-ripple axial piston pumps.

This paper presents a study of flow ripple reduction method of a spool valves distribution radial piston pump (SVDRPP). Relief chamfers are adopted to prolong and moderate the opening processes of the delivery spool valves, thus to relieve the pressure surges as well as the consequent flow ripples, vibrations and noises. The mathematical model of this method is established and multiple numerical simulations are conducted to analyze the mechanism as well as the effectiveness of this method. According to the simulation results, different relief chamfer angles have varying influences on flow ripple reduction. Remarkable reduction of flow fluctuation from 43.4% to 36% could be achieved, when the relief chamfer angle is set around 30°. Comparisons between the relief chamfer method and the time delay method indicate that the former has better compatibility to the load pressure lower than the rated value; while the latter has better compatibility to the higher load pressure.

This paper studies the flow characteristics and flow ripple reduction techniques of a spool valves distributed radial piston pump. The mathematical models of the pump are established, and simulations based on the mathematics are performed in AMESim environment. The results indicate that the spool valves distributed radial piston pump has fewer flow fluctuations than the pump distributed by check valves, due to the rigid motion of its distribution component—the spool valves. Then, in order to reduce the flow ripple of the spool valves distributed radial piston pump, three techniques, namely, time delay, relief chamfer and transition compression filter volume, are proposed and their working principles are illustrated. Particularly, the design method of time delay is elaborated and its effectiveness is evaluated. The simulation results suggest that with the usage of the time delay method, the fluctuation range of the spool valves distributed radial piston pump is expected to be reduced by 21.7%.

Abstract This research presents a lumped parameter numerical model aimed at designing and optimizing an axial piston pump. For the first time, it has been shown that a lumped parameter model can accurately model axial piston pump dynamics based on a comparison with CFD models and experimental results. Since the method is much more efficient than CFD, it can optimize the design. Both steady-state and dynamic behaviors have been analyzed. The model results have been compared with experimental data, showing a good capacity in predicting the pump performance, including pressure ripple. The swashplate dynamics have been investigated experimentally, measuring the dynamic pressure which controls the pump displacement; a comparison with the numerical model results confirmed the high accuracy. An optimization process has been conducted on the valve plate geometry to control fluid-born noise by flow ripple reduction. The NLPQL algorithm is used since it is suitable for this study. The objective function to minimize is the well-known function, the Non-Uniformity Grade, a parameter directly correlated with flow ripple. A prototype of the best design has been realized and tested, confirming a reduction in the pressure ripple. An endurance test was also conducted. As predicted from the numerical model, a significant reduction of cavitation erosion was observed.

The discharge flow ripple is a crucial criterion for evaluating the piston pump. This research examines the discharge flow ripple of axial piston pump with conical cylinder block by developing a comprehensive mathematical model based upon the Bernoulli equation and the continuity equation. The novel aspect of this research is that it includes the analysis of cylinder block cone angle. From the results of this research, it can be concluded that cylinder block cone angle has a significant impact on the discharge flow ripple, and utilizing a conical cylinder block design is more feasible than cylindrical cylinder block from a flow ripple point of view. This conclusion can be used to guide the up-front design for the variable displacement pump.
