Parameter Identification and Modeling of a Pneumatic Proportional Valve with Applicability in Control Design of Servo-Pneumatic Systems

Abstract:

The key element in a servo-pneumatic actuation system is the control valve. This paper presents a method for parameter identification and modeling the flow characteristic of a FESTO MPYE-5-1/8-HF-101B proportional valve. An experimental setup and a procedure for parameter identification is presented in the paper. Simulation and experimental results are in agreement and the model of the valve could be used in high-accuracy positioning control design of pneumatic servo-systems.
