[0022] By utilizing the relationship between the gas pressure and the volume of the hydraulic oil in the accumulator, a dynamic equation is used to detect and calculate the pressure of the pre-charged nitrogen gas in the accumulator group in real time; Equation overview: PV=nRT;
[0023] P represents the pressure of the gas (Pascal, Pa)
[0024] V represents the volume of the gas (cubic meters, m³)
[0025] n represents the amount of gas (mole, mol)
[0026] R represents the ideal gas constant (8.314 J / (mol·K))
[0027] T is the absolute temperature of the gas (Kelvin, K)
[0028] The volume of hydraulic oil in the accumulator is ΔV=[Vo*(1-(P1 / P2)1 / n)] / (P1 / Po)1 / n (liters);
[0029] Po represents the nitrogen charging pressure of the accumulator
[0030] Vo represents the nominal volume of the accumulator (liters)
[0031] P1 represents the upper limit of accumulator pressure compensation
[0032] P2 represents the lower limit of accumulator pressure compensation
[0033] n represents the exponent. For isothermal process, n=1; for adiabatic process, n=1.4
[0034] For a "dynamic" system like an electro-hydraulic actuator, the state of the gas will change over time, so the time factor also needs to be considered; the nitrogen pressure value Po is calculated using the boost time of the power pump group, which is the time it takes to detect the energy storage in the accumulator;
[0035] t=(ΔV+V) / [(S / 1000)*n*η]*60(seconds) where
[0036] S is the oil pump displacement (cc / r)
[0037] n is the motor speed (r / min)
[0038] η is the volumetric efficiency of the oil pump
[0039] V is the fuel consumption during regulation
[0040] Related factors that cause errors during calculation:
[0041] (1) The temperature of the nitrogen itself increases;
[0042] (2) Change in hydraulic oil volume during valve position adjustment;
[0043] (3) Leakage of oil pump and hydraulic system;
[0044] (4) Errors caused by indirect measurement of P1 and P2;
[0045] After repeated verification with a large amount of experimental data, the accuracy of the solution has been guaranteed. The electro-hydraulic actuator control system uses pre-set indicator parameters. After each storage or release process of the accumulator, the controller immediately calculates the current nitrogen pressure value of the system through dynamic equation calculations and compares and judges it with the alarm value set in the system. At the same time, it uses dry contacts or remote communication to transmit alarm information, thereby improving the reliability and safety of system operation online.
[0046] The working process of the present utility model is as follows: when in use, multiple accumulators 7 are first rotated and installed on the mounting frame 6, and then the mounting frame 6 is rotated and moved to the positioning hole 3 in the annular groove 201 through the PLC controller, and at the same time, the cannula 5 is controlled to extend from the connector 4 and pass through the positioning hole 3 and embed into the specified position in the mounting frame 6 in the positioning hole 3 area, and the protrusion 501 on the outer wall of the cannula 5 extends into the locking groove 601, and the cannula 5 can be moved in the locking groove 601 with the rotation of the cannula 5 and the inclined angle is matched to make the cannula 5 retract into the mounting frame 6, so that the pipeline is connected with the accumulator 7 for detection.
[0047] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
