Abstract
The article considers the hydraulic drive of a modern excavator on which the influence of the working fluid temperature on the power is established, depending on the technical condition of the hydraulic elements. Studies have shown that new pumps and which have operating wear, have different rational temperature of the working fluid. It is impossible to imagine modern construction machines without equipping them with a hydraulic drive. The operation of the hydraulic drive largely determines the efficiency of operation of both a single machine and the entire fleet, which consists of new and old machines . The efficiency of hydrated machines is ensured in their design, manufacture, and operation, where an important role is played by the parameters of the working fluid: the degree of its contamination and temperature (viscosity). The influence of the temperature of the working fluid on the efficiency of the hydraulic drive and the ability to control the efficiency of the hydraulic drive with the help of temperature have not been studied enough. One of the promising areas in determining the rational temperature of the working fluid is the development of new designs of heat exchangers, heaters, diagnostic devices, which will be able to assess the technical condition of individual elements and the hydraulic drive as a whole. Establishing a rational temperature of the working fluid as a necessary parameter of the hydraulic system is mandatory when using modern methods to increase the efficiency of operation, maintenance and repair of hydraulic drives. With increasing temperature of the working fluid, its viscosity decreases and the loss of pressure and power in the mains of the hydraulic drive. However, this increases the internal flow of hydraulic units, which leads to an increase in power loss. Studies have shown that new pumps and which have operational wear, have different rational temperature of the working fluid. At rational values of temperature to the hydraulic motor the worn out pumps can give almost twice more power, than at 50 ° C, recommended for new pumps. The driving power of the pump, thus, practically does not change.
