The Influence of Cross Angle on the Flow Ripple of Axial Piston Pumps by CFD Simulation

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper studies the flow pulsation of axial piston pumps of different cross angles based on CFD simulation. The swash-plate cross angle of piston pump affects the piston pump outlet flow pulsation by changing the contraction amount of the plunger in the valve plate transition zone. First, we established the flow pulsation model with swash plate cross angle based on the noise reduction principle of the swash plate cross angle, and studied the influence of cross angle of different rotation angels on the flow pulsation based on CFD simulation. The conclusion is that the maximum and minimum peak of the flow pulsation decreased when the rotation angle of the cross angle is greater than 1 °; the maximum and minimum peak of the flow pulsation increased when the rotation angle of the cross angle is less than -1 °; a good noise reduction can be got when the piston pump cross angle rotates 1°.
