Abstract Based on the previously developed fixed-displacement asymmetric axial piston pump, a variable displacement asymmetric axial piston pump (VDAAPP) with three independent suction/delivery ports is proposed. A basic linear model of VDAAPP is established to get open-loop bode diagram. Based on open-loop Bode diagram features and design requirements, P-controller is determined for VDAAPP. Then VDAAPP's performance is investigated by advanced modeling environment for performing simulations of engineering systems (AMESim) and automatic dynamic analysis of mechanical systems (ADAMS) joint simulation, and some key design parameters are obtained. Next, a VDAAPP prototype with a maximum displacement of 40 cc/rev is designed and manufactured, ratio of flow rates at ports A, B and T is 1:0.6:0.4. Due to hard limitations of the test bench, the performance only under the conditions of the opposite passive loads is tested. Preliminary test results indicate that VDAAPP prototype works normally and meets the design requirements for flow ratio, and the maximum rise time of the test pressure is about 0.32 s. However, due to special design of VDAAPP valve plate, the swash plate torque severely limits system dynamic response. Therefore, an improved swashplate control system based on asymmetric-valve-controlled asymmetric-piston scheme is presented as well, it is found to be an effective way to suppress the negative impact of swash plate torque on system dynamic performance. This provides a direction for the optimization of the swashplate control system for asymmetric axial piston pumps in the future.

A new, open-loop, reduced order model is proposed for the swash plate dynamics of an axial piston pump. The difference from previous reduced order models is the modeling of a damping mechanism not reported previously in the literature. An analytical expression for the damping mechanism is derived. The proposed reduced order model is validated by comparing with a complete nonlinear simulation of the pump dynamics over the entire range of operating conditions.

In designing an axial piston pump, lot of attention is given to the design of the valve plate. A well designed valve plate can reduce both flow pulsations as well as oscillating forces on the swash plate. In the presented study, a computational tool, CASPAR, has been used for investigating the effect of valve plate design on flow ripple (fluid borne noise), oscillating forces (structure borne noise) and volumetric efficiency. The impact of various valve plate design parameters such as precompression grooves, cross port, indexing and additional precompression volume will be presented using simulation results from CASPAR. The study also details how rate of pressurization and decompression inside the displacement chamber directly relate to the flow ripple, forces applied on swash plate and the control effort needed to stroke the swash plate. The effect of noise reduction techniques on volumetric efficiency will also be presented with simulated results.

Axial piston pumps with port valves are widely used in applications that require high pressure and high power. In the present research, a new type of double-swash-plate hydraulic axial piston pump (DSPHAPP) with port valves is presented. The structure and working principle of the pump are discussed, and the balance characteristics of the pump are analyzed. A mathematical model of the pump flow distribution mechanism considering the leakage is established, based on which the effects of centrifugal forces acting on the port valves, working pressure, and rotational speed on the flow distribution characteristics are studied. A new method of varying the displacement of the pump that changes the phase relation of the two swash plates is proposed, and the principle and regulating characteristics of the variable method are studied. A detailed analysis of the forces and moments acting on the cylinder and the bearing reaction forces is presented. Finally, the relationship between volumetric efficiency and working pressure, and rotational speed and variable angle, is presented. It is revealed through an analysis that the working principle of the pump is feasible, and that the variable method can meet the requirements of varying the displacement of the pump. The characteristics of static balance and dynamic balance of the double-swashplate pump have the advantage of reducing vibration and noise. The research results also show that the reasonable matching of the working pressure and rotational speed can increase the pump's working performance to its optimum level.

The pair between slipper and swash-plate is an important friction pair in the axial piston pump. Due to quick relative velocity, alternating load, numerous slippers, and high contact pressure between the friction surfaces, the wear-out and fatigue failure constantly occurs, which is one of the key factors affecting reliability of the piston pump. It is of fundamental significance to investigate the mechanism of slipper power loss and to find an appropriate method to improve the lubrication of the slipper. Here, the model of friction power loss between slipper and swash-plate is established, and the friction power loss between slipper and swash-plate is solved and comparatively analysed. Finally, the correctness of theoretical analysis and simulation results are verified by experiments.
