Abstract
This paper presents a simulation based approach for sizing the axial balance elements of a pressure compensated external gear machine. The reference hydraulic unit must be able to guarantee operation in two quadrants, as either a pump or a motor. It also needs to operate in a wide operating range of speed and pressure, as it is to be used as primary hydraulic unit for an electro-hydraulic actuator (EHA). The design procedure builds upon past work at the author’s center, but it extends it to the case of multiple quadrant units. Also, a unique method for modeling of both mixed lubrication and cavitation that might occur in the lubricating film is used. After describing the design procedure, the paper discusses the features of the balancing of a reference unit, along with the effects of both cavitation and mixed lubrication.
