Abstract: Abstract. Based on the redefined flow rate and flow pressure, the forward and backward state equations of long-stroke valve-controlled asymmetrical cylinder system are set up, in which the general mistakes in building up the flow rate equation are avoided. Then the simulation model in MATLAB/Simulink is established. Adopting the conditional-executive subsystem blocks, joint simulation with different models at two directions is realized by taking into account the continuity problems in positioning reversal. The subsystem of introduced equivalent volume function helps to show the effects of piston working position to valve-controlled cylinder system. Furthermore, with this simulation model, dynamic performance analysis of long-stroke valve-controlled asymmetrical cylinder system including some nonlinear factors becomes convenient.

Abstract: With the consideration of compressibility flow and the redefined load flow and load pressure, the mathematical model of long-stroke valve-controlled asymmetrical cylinder system is presented. The equivalent volume functions, the functions of equivalent volume functions of cylinder's two chambers are introduced, which reflects the influence of piston's positions in its long stroke on the dynamic performance of valve-controlled cylinder. Simulation results show that there exists obvious differences between forward and backward directions of long-stroke valve-controlled asymmetrical cylinder system, and its dynamic performance varies along the whole stroke, where the middle-stroke position may not always be the so-called most dangerous position.
