Abstract

In order to improve the performance of jet-pipe servovalve, a novel pilot stage for jet-pipe servovalve driven by giant magnetostrictive actuator is presented, and its working principle is given. On the basis of Jiles-Atherton’s theory of magnetism, the dynamic nonlinear model of giant magnetostrictive actuator is deduced to analyze the characteristics. The simulation results shows the peak time of GMA is less than 0.5ms at the driving current of 1.5A, and the bandwidth can be reached up to 900Hz, but the static performance is worse than the torque motor applied in conventional jet-pipe servovalve.
