Abstract
Aiming at the problems of cavitation noise in the cone throttle valve, triangle groove cone throttle valves with 45, 53, 60 degree were selected as the research objects. Firstly the structure characteristics of the throttle valves were analyzed, then the three-dimensional models and mathematical models were established. By using the finite element simulation software ADINA, the simulation diagrams about pressure and flow velocity of the cone valves were obtained and then verified on the test bench which was about the noise characteristics of throttle valve. The investigation result showed that the flow field of the cone valve was complex, and there were local low pressure areas where were high incidence of cavitation; the valve with 60 degree spool had the minimum noise, which showed the best performance, then the 53 degree spool was a bit poor, and the worst valve was 45 degree spool. Increasing the angles of the triangle groove appropriately could reduce the cavitation noise and improve the performance of the valve. This investigation has great significance on understanding the flow field and controlling the cavitation noise in triangle groove cone throttle valves. Besides it also has a certain reference value to other hydraulic components on the cavitation noise control and structural optimization.
