Abstract
The computer simulation package BATHfp has been developed at the Fluid Power Centre, University of Bath to perform transient time domain simulations of fluid power systems. Utilities are provided which allow new models to be introduced into the component database. This enables the package to be tailored to particular dedicated areas of interest such as aircraft flight controls, braking and landing gear and fuel flow systems. This paper describes the application of BATHfp to aircraft hydraulic systems. An example is taken of an electrohydraulic position control system which uses an actuator to move an aileron according to a desired schedule. Parametric variations are made to illustrate how system performance can be improved.
