Abstract

To meet the demand of ever operating in extreme environments of modern high-end vehicles or machineries, it is meaningful to perform basic research on fluid mechanics of hydraulic orifices and/or gaps under high or low temperature conditions. In this study, a novel compact experimental module which integrates the oil, the oil supply mechanism, the testing damping valve with orifices and/or gaps and several sensors was proposed, the experimental module has avoided the bulky method of using a full hydraulic system for oil supply and can be wholly placed into a high/low temperature chamber to undertake experiments; Based on the integrated experimental module, a test rig employing a variable-frequency-motor-driven ball screw driver to excite the testing module was developed. By using the virtual instrument technology, the hardware and software of automatic measurement and control system was further developed, so the automatic control and data collection of the test rig was realized. Final results show that the test rig can conveniently perform fluid mechanics experiments for various hydraulic orifices and/or gaps under high or low temperature conditions with high efficiency, so the test rig can be a very good platform for pertinent basic research works.
