Design of Variable Pump Displacement Controller Based on FLSMC Method

Abstract

To reduce the effect of nonlinear factors and improve the tracking accuracy of the control system, a controller based on feedback linearization sliding mode control (FLSMC) method is proposed. This paper takes a variable displacement pump driven by a constant speed motor as the research object to verify the effectiveness of the designed controller. First, a high-order nonlinear model of the variable pump displacement control mechanism is established. Meanwhile, the load characteristic of the control cylinder is obtained by analyzing the swashplate control moment. Then the author uses the feedback linearization method to linearize the system model and designs a sliding mode controller to eliminate the impact of load parameter changes. Finally, the proposed FLSMC controller is used in simulation and experiment, and the PID controller is used as a comparison. Results show that the FLSMC controller can effectively improve the robustness of the pump control system.
