Abstract
This paper presents a comparison of the energetic consumption of a valveless and a valve controlled active oscillation damping system for off-road machinery. Today only passive oscillation damping systems are subject to off-road machine series production. These systems offer the advantage of no additional primary energy use for damping. However, the disadvantages are the high costs and no adaptation possibility to the operating parameters. The recent developments where valve controlled linear actuators have been used for active damping had to face several problems with too low dynamics of today’s implemented control valves and the high additional energy need. These disadvantages can be avoided by using valveless linear actuators for working functions and for active damping. In fact, throttling losses are omitted and, energy recovery is possible. It will be shown based on measurement and simulation results that a suitable damping quality can be achieved with valveless linear actuators. Therefore, some aspects of the controller design will be given. Hereby, a simple acceleration sensor and standard control hardware are used. The main part will describe the energetic modelling, whereby especially precise pump loss models have been developed. The energy consumption of both systems performing active damping is compared in detail.
