ENERGY SAVINGS AND SPEED IMPROVEMENT IN LINEAR POWER HYDRAULIC ACTUATORS USING A SELF-ACTUATED FLOW CONTROL VALVE

This research concerns the energy efficiency and speed improvement in the hydraulic actuation system. Energy saving potentials in both the spool valves and the hydraulic cylinders were investigated in the FLUENT code. The probable sources of energy losses in these components were explored and the...
