摘要:A numerical model for studying the time-dependent tribological performance of the floating valve-plate pair in axial piston pump is proposed. The lubrication analysis and the dynamics of the floating valve plate are taken into consideration. An additional source term is adopted into time-dependent Reynolds equation so that the model to analyze the auxiliary balance effects is set up. The boundary pressure of the kidney ports is dynamically coupled with the flow rate towards the loading. It is found that all the performance parameters fluctuate periodically and the valve-plate interface tilt has a vital impact on the tribological performances. The results obtained by the proposed model are highly detailed, and help to improve the understanding of floating valve-plate pair.
