The invention relates to a computing method for equivalent thickness of hydraulic buffer isomorphic annular sandwich valve plates, and belongs to the technical field of buffers. In the prior art, the reliable computing method for the equivalent thickness of the hydraulic buffer isomorphic annular sandwich valve plates is not available, and thus the actual requirements for design, production and characteristic simulation modeling of the buffer can be not met. With adoption of the method, according to thickness and plate number of the annular sandwich valve plates with same material, equal inner diameter and equal outer diameter, the equivalent thickness h<e> of the sandwich valve plates, equivalent to that of a signal valve plate, can be computed accurately and quickly; through comparison with the ANSYS simulation result, the fact can be confirmed that the computing method for the equivalent thickness of the hydraulic buffer isomorphic annular sandwich valve plates is accurate and reliable, and further, the reliable computing method for the equivalent thickness of the isomorphic annular sandwich valve plates is provided for detachment design and stress intensity check of the buffer sandwich valve plates as well as characteristic simulation modeling of the buffer.
