Optimization of the Dynamic Performance of the Direct Drive Volume Control System Based on Orthogonal Experiment

Abstract:

Direct drive volume control (DDVC) electro-hydraulic servo system has many advantages compared to the valve control system. However, its application scopes were restricted by its poor dynamic performance. To study the reason for the low dynamic response, mechanical model of DDVC electro-hydraulic servo system is established. Structure parameters influencing the dynamic performance are analyzed. To optimize the structure parameters, the methodology of orthogonal experiment is presented. The selection of factors and levels of the experiment and the choice of the evaluation index are also revealed. The proposed methodology is carried out by simulation software and an optimal configuration is obtained. The dynamic response of the DDVC system with the optimal parameters is simulated. The results show that the dynamic performances are improved. The cross-over frequencyincreases from 0.0046 rad/s to 0.0442 rad/s, and the rise time T_r decreases from 488.6s to 47.90s.
