Abstract

To solve the problem that the flow dynamic characteristic of the bladder pressure pulsation attenuator cannot be quantitatively analyzed, a bladder pressure pulsation attenuator was taken as the research object, and the dynamic mesh technology was combined with the User-Defined-Function (UDF) to numerically simulate the working process of the attenuator. Overcoming the divergence problem in finite-element fluid calculation and the negative volume problem in mesh updating process, the bladder pressure pulsation attenuator was dynamically simulated under different fluctuating frequencies and different inflatable pressure, the change of internal flow field was monitored in time. The results show that the resistance loss through the attenuator increases with the increase of the frequency and the increase of the charging pressure. The local resistance loss is much higher than the frictional resistance loss. The simulation results match the experimental results, that verifies the model's validity and correctness, and also provides a new method and idea to improve bladder attenuator's resistance loss and analyze the variable boundary problem.
