Abstract
The load-sensing electro-hydrostatic actuator (LS-EHA) allows to reduce the thermal output and enhance the dynamic characteristics of the more electric aircraft (MEA). In addition, the forecasting of the LS-EHA is crucial for its efficient functioning. This study proposes a novel model for the analysis of overturning and wear characterization of the slipper, while focusing on the partial abrasion. The transient thermoelastic hydrodynamic (TEHD) lubricating analysis of the slipper pair is solved by an analytical model along with the finite difference method. In the proposed partial abrasion model, the non-uniformity of the oil film thickness and the partial abrasion contour for the slipper bottom surface are considered through the discrete friction area approach in order to reach a higher precision. Afterward, the overturning behavior characteristics of the slipper and the variation law in its overturning behavior under different rotation speeds, load delivery pressures, and swashplate angles are analyzed. The obtained results demonstrate that the lubricating oil film field is unevenly distributed, and the overturning behavior of the slipper has certain variable load characteristics. Finally, the effectiveness and precision of the proposed partial abrasion model are validated through comparative simulation experiments and analysis.
