Intended learning outcomes

This course is intended to give a broad and deep knowledge in hydraulic servo systems. The knowledge aims for the course are:

  • to convey deep knowledge about component functionality and characteristics in the area of Hydraulic Servo Systems.
  • to give knowledge about calculation methods and system design.
  • to convey knowledge about control principals and control engineering methods with respect to controllability and energy consumption.
  • to give insight in measurement methods and computer usage for system analyses.
    The skill aims for the course are:
    • be able to model and analyse hydraulic servo systems with respect to performance, controllability and energy consumption.
    • be able to apply calculation methods for component selections and system design.
    • be able to perform measurements on components and systems.

    Course content

    • Basic theory: Columnar flow. Orifices. Disturbance forces on valve elements. Cavitation. Physical and chemical properties of hydraulic fluids.
    • Simulation techniques: Simulation of dynamic characteristics of fluid power systems.
    • Proportional/servo valves - design and properties of different pilot and main stage and amplifier card. Servo systems for control of position, speed and power. Loads with several degrees of freedom. Control strategies and dynamic properties
