The centralized lubrication system is an important mechanism required in most industries where the pumps provide the lubricant. This study is aimed to design a variable displacement pump that will replace the existing pump and reduce the cost of the operations required to provide the lubrication as per the requirement. A novel design of variable displacement pump is proposed with different components providing the variable discharge. Initially, the design of the variable displacement pump is evaluated, and analytical solutions are validated numerically. Numerical simulations are performed for the forces obtained in the analytical calculations, and the design proposed is safe within the permissible limit. The novel variable displacement pump proposed will reduce the wastage of fluid.

Hydrostatic transmissions are commonly used in heavy-duty equipment for their design flexibility and superior power density. Compared to a conventional wind turbine transmission, a hydrostatic transmission (HST) is a lighter, more reliable, cheaper, continuously variable alternative for a wind turbine. In this paper, for the first time, a validated dynamical model and controlled experiment have been used to analyze the performance of a hydrostatic transmission with a fixed-displacement pump and a variable-displacement motor for community wind turbines. From the dynamics of the HST, a pressure control strategy is designed to maximize the power capture. A hardware-in-the-loop simulation is developed to experimentally validate the performance and efficiency of the HST drive train control in a 60 kW virtual wind turbine environment. The HST turbine is extensively evaluated under steady and time-varying wind on a state-of-the-art power regenerative hydrostatic dynamometer. The proposed controller tracks the optimal tip-speed ratio to maximize power capture.

Abstract In this research project,the deformations in the longitudinal and transverse reinforcing steel of a reinforced concrete beam with 2ϕ½” were estimated.Additionally,the displacements in thecenter of thespanweremeasuredtogether with theloads, which generatedthecrackingof the beam of dimensions180 mm×240 mm×3100 mm.Displacement were performed using a linear variable displacement transducer, and strain gauges were used to measure deformations. Finally, the applied load’s measurements were obtained with a load cell Pinzuar/Model-100/20T equipment.The physical-mechanical properties of the concreteused were determined through compressive strength tests at 28 days and modulus of elasticity.For this purpose, a load-bearing frame was used to support the beam at three points for load application.The data was collected directly on the Quantum/X2 equipment and analyzed with the help of the Catman/AP software.The maximum deformations found in the bending test at three point since there inforced concrete beam we are not greater than 8483µm/mm,presenting a failure in the center of the beam due to the creep of the tensile steel for a maximum load of 3115 Kg.Finally,the physical behavior of there inforced concrete beam with applying aload allows evaluating and optimizing this kind of systems.

To provide a precise model of dynamic components in the constant pressure pump, and to improve the accuracy of dynamic calculation of the constant-pressure hydraulic system in its design stage, the research undertook mapping on a particular constant pressure pump and determined its basic structural parameters. Then, with the AMESim software, the research adopted separate structures from the level of basic components to establish the model of single-piston pump, the model of variable displacement pump, and the model of adjustable mechanism for the swashplate, respectively. The three models were combined with the constant-pressure variable displacement pump before it was encapsulated in a super component. By controlling the flow discharge of the constant pressure pump, and by switching on and off the constant pressure valve with the internal and long-distance pressure control, the research undertook the simulative test and the corresponding experimental test on the characteristics of pressure response of the constant pressure pump. The results of both tests agreed well with each other. Thus, it verifies the precision of the established constant pressure pump model in performing accurately in response design and analytical calculation.

Abstract A novel, variable displacement, low-speed high-torque hydraulic motor is being developed that is expected to be highly efficient across a broad operating range. To ensure the final hardware achieves the expected performance, the models used in the development of the motor must be experimentally validated and revised. The focus of this work is on mechanical energy loss models that were used to guide the design of a single-cylinder motor prototype and then experimental tests used for validation. Losses were modeled and organized into five primary groups: main shaft bearings, main shaft seal, case windage, valve actuation, and linkage losses. The single-cylinder prototype was fabricated, and test parameters were defined. Two test rigs were designed and built to capture losses of the motor experimentally; one was used to collect low torque, zero/low-pressure differential results, and the other used to collect high torque, high-pressure differential results. A staged assembly procedure was developed to capture the independent contributions of each loss. By reviewing the quality of correlation between test observations and model predictions and revising the model when necessary, the models were validated. The correlation was improved by reviewing and modifying model inputs. This allows future solutions to be more accurately predicted in the design phase to drive the design of better machines. The validated model package was able to predict the motor performance within an acceptable range of error.
