The authors present a novel power supply for mobile robotic systems. A monopropellant (e.g., hydrogen peroxide) decomposes into high temperature gases, which drive a free piston hydraulic pump (FPHP). The elimination of fuel/oxidizer mixing allows the design of simple, lightweight systems capable of operation in oxygen free environments. A thermodynamic analysis has been performed, and an experimental FPHP has been built and tested. The prototype successfully pumped hydraulic fluid, although the flow rate was limited by the off-the-shelf components used.

The aim of the scientific contribution is simulating the load of gear hydraulic pump used in agricultural machinery in laboratory conditions, where the impact of ecological transmission-hydraulic fluid on life limit (flow and efficiency) of gear hydraulic pump GHD1-17R is monitored. Laboratory test equipment was used for the simulation. The equipment was used to perform life limit test of hydraulic pump and to monitor changes in physicochemical ecological energy carriers. The simulation in laboratory conditions took 500 hours. The Vickers test took 100 hours. Transmission-hydraulic fluid MOL Farm NH Ultra was used for simulation. The results were that fluid is appropriate to use in this type of hydraulic pump in agricultural machineries. According to the Vickers test, the fluid is characterized by an increased value of flow and efficiency after 50 working hours, thereby exceeding the specified test values.

This paper deals with the lifetime test of a tractor hydraulic pump. The basic indicator of hydraulic pump lifetime is flow characteristics. This paper presents the results of the performance test of ecological hydraulic fluid. These results were subjected to statistical analysis. Based on these data, it is possible to express a minimum impact of ecological hydraulic fluid on hydraulic pump lifetime. The test was carried out in cooperation between the Department of Transport and Handling (Slovak University of Agriculture in Nitra) and Slovnaft, a.s. (joint-stock company), and supported by the Scientific Grant Agency of the Ministry of Education, Science, Research and Sport of the Slovak Republic – VEGA, ref. No 1/0857/12.

The present article deals with the physical properties monitoring of the transmission-hydraulic fluid, and changes of those properties due the operating load of the hydraulic pump in laboratory conditions. Tests of the transmission-hydraulic fluid were performed in laboratory conditions with the simulation of the operating load, so as to simulate the real conditions under which hydraulic circuit of the agricultural tractors operates. The universal transmission-hydraulic fluid was subjected to analysis, where the samples of the fluid were taken sequentially according to the chosen methodology at intervals of 250 and 500 h. The results of the present article include the evaluation of the physical properties of the fluid and the flow efficiency change of the hydraulic pump after 250 and 500 h of operation, while simulating the operation load. Based on a laboratory test, we found that after working for 500 h, the dynamic viscosity of the examined hydraulic fluid at 40°C decreased by 2.92 mPa.s and at 100°C decreased by 0.64 mPa.s. When determining the kinematic viscosity of the hydraulic fluid after working for 500 h, we recorded its decrease, namely, at a temperature of 40°C by a value of 3.37 mm2/s and at a temperature of 100°C, its value decreased by 0.77 mm2/s. In the analysis of the test oil samples, we found that the level of water contamination of the hydraulic fluid decreases with increasing number of hours worked. Specifically, the water concentration in the hydraulic fluid decreased by 0.031%. At the same time, we recorded a slight decrease in the flow efficiency of the hydraulic pump, specifically by a value of 0.03% after 500 h worked. After working 500 h, we found that the range of abrasion particles in the transmission-hydraulic fluid is within the prescribed range, which is determined by the standard D6595-00.

In this study, a thermodynamic analysis of a hydraulic braking energy recovery system used in vehicles is performed for newly developed systems. The present system is related to the field of energy efficiency in vehicles. The energy recovery system comprises a first pump, a hydraulic accumulator, and a hydraulic motor. The first pump is a variable displacement hydraulic pump (VDP). The hydraulic accumulator is connected to the first pump which operates to store hydraulic fluid under pressure. The hydraulic motor is hydraulically connected to the accumulator to receive hydraulic fluid. The motor is adapted to drive a second hydraulic pump, which is hydraulically connected to the auxiliary system, using hydraulic energy stored in the accumulator. The overall charging and discharging efficiencies, and the overall system efficiency is calculated and presented in this paper. For the purpose of the analysis, EES (engineering equation solver) is used. In addition, parametric studies are performed to observe the effects of different substantial parameters, namely, the inlet pressure and temperature of the accumulator, and the reference environment temperature, in order to investigate the variations in the system performance in terms of the efficiencies. Two systems are developed and it is found that the charging and discharging efficiencies for one system are 83.81% and 87.73%, while for the other system the charging and discharging efficiencies are 81.84% and 85.67%, respectively.

Hydraulic pumps are the most important components of hydraulic circuits in agricultural tractors. Their durability is influenced by flow characteristics and thus the flow efficiency. This paper presents the laboratory test of an ecological synthetic hydraulic fluid of UTTO type. This fluid is currently under development. In terms of a decrease in hydraulic pump flow efficiency, laboratory tests of these fluids did not show negative effects of its application. It can be stated that after completion of laboratory tests, it will be needed to continue with trials under operational conditions.

A monopropellant powered free piston hydraulic pump (FPHP) was designed as a human scale (1.0 to 3.0 kW) mobile robotics power supply. The FPHP utilized high concentration hydrogen peroxide, which decomposes into hot gas when exposed to a catalyst, as the monopropellant energy source. Energy was extracted from the hydrogen peroxide and transferred directly to hydraulic fluid by expanding the hot decomposition gas in an integrated piston/cylinder arrangement. The prototype FPHP successfully produced 50 W of hydraulic power by pumping hydraulic fluid at an average pressure of 6.5 MPa (940 psi) and flow rate of 0.48 liters/min (0.13 gallons/min).
