Characteristic analysis of a water hydraulic pilot-operated pressure-reducing valve
Abstract
Comprehensive characteristics of a seawater hydraulic pilot-operated pressure-reducing valve with constant pressure output were analyzed. A rated pressure of 15MPa and a rated flowrate of 40L/min were offered in the numerical work. Static and dynamic analyses show good behaviors: The settling time is less than 0.2s, the output pressure variation is about 0.3MPa at the maximum when input pressure or flowrate is flucturing, and the steady external leakage is below 0.025L/min. The pilot spring regulates the output pressure and the main spring has an ability to adjust the output pressure variation faintly. The narrow hole diameter of the adjustable damping plugs is negatively related to the respond time. And appropriately raising the spring chamber volume can evidently reduce outlet pressure impact of the valve when input mutations happen.
