Abstract

The purpose of the study was by means of modern software to explore working processes taking place in automatic direct-acting pressure regulators of pneumatic spacecraft systems. As a result, we developed a general mathematical model of the pressure regulator. The design of the regulator is shown in the form of a block diagram, composed of a set of channels, cavities, and stages. The elements of the block diagram are interconnected by the basic laws of conservation of energy and mass. The mathematical model was evaluated in the Amesim software package. Findings of the full-scale and computational experiments led to the conclusions about the effect the heat exchange between the working fluid and the environment produces on the parameters of the pressure regulator, and about the use of the Amesim software package for further research of working processes in the valve units of pneumatic systems.
