The vibration of a swash plate is caused by the piston forces and the control actuator acting on the swash plate. An earlier study of the outlet flow ripple of variable-displacement axial piston pumps assumed a fixed swash plate angle; it ignored the influence of swash plate vibration on the outlet flow ripple of the axial piston pump. In this work, a theoretical model of the outlet flow ripple and pressure pulsation was established in a constant power variable-displacement piston pump. The vibration of swash plate, flow leakage, and valve dynamic characteristics are considered in the theoretical model. The computational results of the theoretical model at different external load pressures are verified by comparison with experimental results. The vibration of the swash plate is strongly influenced by both the piston chamber pressure variation and the control actuator mechanism. The study proved the influence of the swash plate vibration on the outlet flow ripple and the pressure pulsation of an axial piston pump. Compared to the case of a fixed swash plate angle, accounting for swash plate vibration is much more suitable for the accurate determination of the outlet flow ripple and pressure pulsation of an axial piston pump. It is also shown that the vibration of the swash plate affects the valve plate design. Accordingly, valve plate optimization based on the theoretical model of the outlet flow ripple was also studied in this work. The amplitude of the instantaneous outlet flow ripple was considered as the optimization objective function. Finally, the optimized design parameters for a constant power variable-displacement swash plate axial piston pump were evaluated.

Analysis of a variable displacement axial piston pump, as in other complex fluid power and mechanical systems, requires appropriate insight into three multidisciplinary domains, i.e., hydraulics, mechanics and tribology. In recent years, at FPRL, modelling of axial piston pumps has evolved in AMESim (one-dimensional code) where a three-dimensional mechanical approach has required generation of proprietary libraries leading to the evaluation of internal forces/reactions in all pump subsystems. Tribologic aspects in axial piston pumps modelling are also being investigated but AMESim, in this respect, does not appear as the appropriate computational environment. Consequently, a new approach has been initiated grounded on MSC.ADAMS. In this perspective, the paper details how the model has been developed through proprietary macros that automatically originate all pump subsystems parametrically and further apply required constraints and forces (springs, contacts and pressure forces). The ADAMS environment has also been selected due to co-simulation capabilities with AMESim. Accordingly, the paper elucidates how the entire modelling has been construed where hydraulics is managed in AMESim while ADAMS takes care of mechanics. A comparison between simulated and experimental steady-state characteristics of the axial pump is also presented. As such this paper indicates an innovative methodology for the analysis of complex fluid power systems in the hope that, eventually, tribology will also fit into the scene.
