Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of aircraft hydraulic systems and relates to a method and system for high and low temperature durability testing of hydraulic valves. Specifically, it relates to the principle, system configuration, and detection control of a method for high and low temperature durability testing of hydraulic valves. Background Technology

[0002] Hydraulic valve durability testing is a crucial qualification test for hydraulic products. Aircraft operating environments encompass ambient, high, and low temperatures. Hydraulic valves installed on aircraft inevitably endure various temperature conditions. Thermal expansion and contraction of hydraulic safety valve components cause changes in the clearances between parts, and the viscosity of the working fluid also changes with temperature, affecting the valve's opening characteristics. To verify the performance and adaptability of hydraulic valves throughout the aircraft's entire lifespan and across all temperature environments, durability testing is typically divided into three temperature ranges: high temperature, ambient temperature, and low temperature. The number of hydraulic valve durability tests usually exceeds 200,000 cycles. Generally, ambient temperature durability tests account for a higher proportion (65%), high temperature tests a smaller proportion (25%), and low temperature tests a smaller proportion (at least 10%). Although the high and low temperature tests account for a relatively smaller proportion compared to ambient temperature tests, they are more challenging to implement, requiring heating (cooling) the test fluid to the specified high (low) temperature and maintaining high (low) temperature stability throughout the entire test.

[0003] Currently, research and development units construct high- and low-temperature hydraulic test benches to conduct high- and low-temperature durability tests on hydraulic products. Constructing such benches requires hydraulic components such as high- and low-temperature resistant hydraulic pumps and solenoid directional valves, which is technically challenging and costly. High- and low-temperature hydraulic test benches use heating (cooling) of the return oil line to raise (lower) the temperature of the test system's oil. However, the significant heat exchange between the high- and low-temperature hydraulic test bench and the test environment severely affects the oil temperature stability, requiring heating (cooling) equipment to continuously provide energy to compensate for the test oil temperature, consuming a large amount of electrical energy. Especially for low-temperature hydraulic durability test benches, the frictional heat generated during hydraulic pump operation and the throttling heat generated in the hydraulic circuit (including components and pipelines) cause the low-temperature oil (generally below -40℃) to easily heat up, making it difficult to maintain the stable low-temperature range required for the test. Russian military industrial enterprises have built specialized cold storage facilities in their laboratories. Placing the test benches in the low-temperature environment of the cold storage reduces the heat absorption of the test system from the external environment and also reduces the impact of heat generation by the hydraulic test benches themselves. The cost of building infrastructure and test equipment for implementing low-temperature durability tests of hydraulic products is staggering.

[0004] In summary, constructing a dedicated high and low temperature durability test bench requires high-performance hydraulic power source components such as high- and low-temperature resistant hydraulic pumps, solenoid directional valves, and relief valves. It may even necessitate the construction of a dedicated low-temperature laboratory, presenting significant technical challenges and requiring substantial financial investment. Furthermore, the high and low temperature hydraulic test bench consumes a significant amount of electrical energy to maintain the stable temperature of the test oil during testing. This includes: firstly, the electrical energy required to raise the temperature of the test bench and test medium to 135℃ (or cool it down to -45℃ to -55℃); and secondly, the heat generated by the hydraulic system during operation, causing the medium temperature to rise, necessitating a continuous supply of electrical energy to maintain the test medium at the temperature required for high and low temperature durability testing.

[0005] Therefore, a high and low temperature durability test method and system for hydraulic valves is needed. This method and system do not require the construction of a dedicated high and low temperature durability test bench and low temperature laboratory. It only needs to provide the high (low) temperature environment provided by the high or (and) low temperature environmental chamber as the heat source (cold source) for the test hydraulic circuit. This method and system only need to heat (cool) a portion of the test oil (rather than the oil of the entire test bench) to reduce the energy consumption for establishing the initial temperature of the test oil. At the same time, placing part of the oil circuit of the test system in a stable high (low) temperature environment reduces the heat exchange between the test system and the external environment during the test, thereby reducing the energy consumed to maintain temperature stability. This method and system place the test hydraulic circuit in the environmental chamber and requires the installation of remote control components such as electromagnetic directional valves, hydraulic bridge circuits for oil circuit isolation and alternating connection, and controllers to realize the opening / closing cycle control of the tested hydraulic valve.

[0046] A method and system for high and low temperature durability testing of hydraulic valves includes a general-purpose hydraulic oil source, a high / low temperature chamber, and a test hydraulic circuit. The general-purpose hydraulic oil source is a hydraulic power source that drives the actuator in the test hydraulic circuit to generate high-pressure fluid to provide hydraulic power to the valve under test. The high / low temperature chamber has sufficient space to install the hydraulic components and pipelines of the test hydraulic circuit and provides a heat source (cold source) for the oil in the test hydraulic circuit. The test hydraulic circuit consists of hydraulic components such as a first hydraulic actuator 1, a second hydraulic actuator 2, a solenoid directional valve 3, a load regulating valve 11, a first check valve 4, a second check valve 5, a third check valve 6, a fourth check valve 7, a temperature sensor 8, a pressure sensor 9, and a flow meter 10. The hydraulic components and pipelines of the test hydraulic circuit (except for the solenoid directional valve 3 and the load regulating valve 11) are located inside the high / low temperature chamber, providing an oil flow path for the valve under test to operate in a cyclic opening / closing manner. A controller is configured to control the electromagnetic reversing valve 3 to automatically switch in sequence and the test valve to open / close. A data logger is configured to automatically record test data (pressure, temperature, number of times).
