This paper presents the characteristics of volumetric efficiency of an axial type piston pump considering the piston tilting. A numerical analysis is carried out in order to obtain the pressure distribution considering the fluid inertia at the notch of the valve plate. The cylinder pressure variation and the discharge flow rate are measured experimentally according to the operating conditions such as supply pressure, rotational speed, and viscosity of the working fluid by using the cam type test apparatus. Leakage is also measured considering piston tilting. The characteristics of the volumetric efficiency are analyzed with respect to various operating conditions and leakage is also analyzed according to the piston tilting angle. Results are applicable to improve the design of an axial type piston pump.

In this research performed on a pneumatic actuator, the air flow entering and exiting the cylinder, and the motion and deformation characteristics of the piston during operation of the actuator, were predicted. This was carried out by utilizing an FSI(Fluid-Structural Interaction) analysis technique that incorporates principles in computational fluid dynamics and structural stress analysis, and potential performance degradation factors were examined. Analysis results indicated that performance improvements could be made through design modifications. These include adding an inlet and outlet on the upper and lower sections of the cylinder in the conventional model, and increasing the number of sites for piston guide bars from three to four.

The existing Swash Plate Type Axial Piston Motor rapidly drops efficiency at high speed in comparison with low speed. This is the reason why the motor was designed only in a viewpoint of minimum of power supply. But, in this paper, the motor which was optimally designed in a veiwpoint not only power supply but also load capacitancy, flow loss volume, axial stiffness and tilting stiffness keeps up high efficiency at high speed.

The thin film flow in the clearance between the piston and cylinder is numerically analyzed to study the lubrication characteristics of the Swashplate type axial piston pumps. The Reynolds equation is solved using a finite difference method under Reynolds boundarycondition. The pressure distributions in the clearance and the lateral forces acting on the piston are compared for various operating conditions. Tilting and rotation of the piston in the cylinder gore are highly affect the lubrication characteristics, therefore, additional analysis are required.

This paper reports on the dynamics and friction characteristics of piston skirt with consideration of mixed lubrication. Piston skirt is an important part of the engine that transforms fuel into mechanical energy. The durability and low friction characteristics are important recent issues in piston skirt design. In this paper, the piston skirt motion is analyzed with consideration of mixed lubrication and piston skirt tilting motion. The entire trajectory of piston motion is obtained by using transient numerical method. Also various parameter studies are performed for piston skirt design and the development of lower frictional engine.

The piston-cylinder mechanism is widely adopted in the hydraulic machine components. In these cases, the hydrodynamic pressures are generated in the clearance gap between the piston and cylinder under lubrication action of the piston. Under the eccentric and tilted condition of the piston in the cylinder bore, the non-symmetric pressure distributions in the circumferential direction result in lateral forces. When the lateral forces act as increasing the eccentricity and tilting ratios, excessive wear can be result in cylinder and piston which are well known 'hydraulic locking' phenomena. In this paper, the hydrodynamic pressures generated in the clearance are measured using a stationary piston and moving cylinder apparatus. The experimental results showed that the hydrodynamic pressure distributions are highly affected by the speed and eccentricity of the cylinder and the oil viscosity.

This study addresses the modeling of a bi-directional outlet variable swash plate type axial piston pump with two EPPR valves and an analysis of the response characteristics to the angle control of that pump. In this paper, the combination of the EPPR valve and double rod type piston is referred to as the EPPR regulator. The EPPR regulator is compact and inexpensive, and has good responsiveness. Under actual pump operating conditions, because of the various external conditions of the pump, inertia is applied to the swash plate, generating the tilting torque. Also, the tilting torque can delay or shorten the response characteristics of the regulator. So we validated them through the analysis using SimulationX and these results allow users to freely integrate the EPPR regulator into the desired system.

Hydrodynamic lateral forces acting on circumferentially grooved and tapered pistons in hydraulic piston pumps are analyzed for the case where the axis of piston and cylinder are tilted with each other. The effects of grooves and tilting on lateral force and leakage flowrate are discussed from the analytical solution of one-dimensional Reynolds equation. The analytical solution is in accordance with the numerical solution of two-dimensional Reynolds equation as the number of grooves increases.

In this study, a numerical analysis for the piston secondary dynamics of small refrigeration reciprocating compressors is performed. In general, the length of cylinder in this class of compressors is shortened to diminish the frictional losses of the piston-cylinder system. So, the contacting length between piston and cylinder wall is in variable with the rotating crank angle around the BDC of the reciprocating piston. In the problem formulation of the piston dynamics, the change in bearing length of the piston and all corresponding forces and moments are considered in order to determine the piston trajectory, velocity and acceleration at each step. A Newton-Raphson procedure was employed in solving the secondary dynamic equations of the piston. The developed computer program can be used to calculate the entire piston trajectory and the hydrodynamic force and moment as functions of crank angle under compressor running conditions. The results explored the effects of the radial clearance, lubricant viscosity, length of the cylinder wall, and pin location on the stability of the piston.

Recently, swash plate type hydraulic axial piston motors/pumps are being extensively used in the world, because of simple design, light weight and effective cost. Structural problem of the swash plate type motor/pump is that tilting angle of swash plate should be limited to relatively small value and lateral farce on pistons has an undesirable effect in reciprocating motion. To solve these problems, piston rod mechanism, which is commonly used in bent axis type motor/pump, is considered to be applied to the swash plate type motor/pump. In this paper, kinematic analysis was done on the piston rod mechanism. A series of formula were derived and numerical calculations were done for a set of motor parameters.
