Development and Parameters Analysis of Hydraulic Controlled Rotary Valve Excitation System

Electro-hydraulic excitation systems are key equipment in various industries. Electric motor driving rotary valves are mostly used in existing systems. However, due to the separate design of the driving and hydraulic parts, highly compact integration cannot be achieved by these type of systems. Moreover, investigation on the influence of relevant parameters on the system has been insufficient in previous studies. To overcome these problems, a novel full electro-hydraulic excitation system scheme as well as a parameters analysis are presented in this paper. Theoretical models of the flow areas for valve orifices of different geometric shapes are obtained, based on which an AMESim® simulation model of the system is established. The effects of the main parameters are analyzed using numerical simulations, and the coupling relationship of the parameters is revealed. The results demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method. Experimental studies were conducted to verify the effectiveness of the proposed system scheme and the analysis results. We found that a highly compact integration can be obtained while maintaining a high reversing frequency. We also found that the proposed system has a certain level of load adaptability, which is superior to the existing methods.


Introduction
Electro-hydraulic vibration technology is an indispensable basic technology widely used in the automation, aerospace, construction machinery, and military fields [1][2][3][4]. The working process of the electro-hydraulic vibration exciter (EHVE) is as follows. Drive signals are input to the electromagnetic directional valve to achieve high-speed reversing, whereas the hydraulic cylinder is controlled to reciprocate with high speeds to realize vibration. According to the working principle of the EHVE, the control valve is the key component, whose performance directly determines the operational quality of the EHVE.
Servo valves have been widely used in most EHVEs before 2006 [5][6][7]. However, there are several limitations on the servo valve in the context of EHVE, such as serious waveform distortion and limited vibration frequency (less than 50 Hz). Electric motor driving rotary valve based solutions are widely considered by researchers in the literature as the most important approach to overcome these problems [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18]. Sallas [8] developed a low inertia servo valve that set the reversing frequency to 160 HZ. However, the structure of the valve core was complex for processing and the rotational

System Design Overview
A prototype model of the hydraulic controlled rotary valve (HCRV) excitation system is shown in Figure 1. Component 10 represents the HCRV prototype model, which consists of elements 11, 12, and 13. The 3D diagram indicated by the blue arrow shows the designed HCRV [20]: the hydraulic oil enters the high pressure oil chamber and a portion of the oil enters the drive end of the HCRV to actuate the rotary valve spool to rotate (the drive end equals to a motor), while the other enters the rotary valve part of the HCRV and then enters the micro-displacement double-functioned hydraulic cylinder to realize excitation. The HCRV prototype model consists of a hydraulic motor and a rotary valve, which are connected through a coupler.
rotary valve successively through port P, valve port III, port B, and oil port R, and then enters the right cylinder chamber. The load mass driven by the cylinder barrel moves to the right along the linear guides and the oil in the left cylinder chamber flows back to the fuel tank through oil port L, port A, valve port I, and port T, successively.
The structures and working principles of the triangular and semicircular valves are the same as that of the rectangular valve.  The working process of the HCRV exciter is shown in Figure 2. The exciter controlled by the HCRV is composed of a HCRV and a micro-displacement double-functioned hydraulic cylinder. Taking the rotary valve with rectangular orifice as an example: there are two identical spool lands on the rotary spool. Each land has four identical rectangular grooves evenly distributed along the circumference direction. The valve sleeve is fitted with a rectangular window corresponding to the spool groove, and the valve ports are formed by the overlapping part between the valve sleeve windows and spool grooves, which are labeled as ports I, II, III, and IV. Valve ports I and IV are meter-in ports while ports II and III are meter-out oil ports. The variation of the flow area of valve ports I and III is the same as that of ports II and IV. Defining α as the central angle of one groove, 4α could be considered as the central angle between two adjacent grooves in geometry. On one spool land, the central angle between adjoining grooves belonging to different groups is 2α. The cylinder is controlled by the HCRV. When the hydraulic system starts to work, the hydraulic oil enters the high pressure oil chamber, a portion of the oil enters the HCRV drive end to actuate the rotary valve spool to rotate (the drive end is similar to a hydraulic motor), while the other enters the rotary valve part of the HCRV; the cylinder barrel is then driven to perform a reciprocating motion. The oil ports are set in the piston rod of the cylinder. The waveform of the HCRV excitation system is formed by the displacement change of the cylinder barrel.
The specific working process of the HCRV exciter is as follows. The valves port flow area changes periodically in the process of spool rotation. When the angular displacement θ increases from 0 to α, valve ports II and IV remain open and their flow areas increase from zero to the maximum, while valve ports I and III remain closed. When the angular displacement increases from α to 2α, the flow area of valve ports II and IV decreases from the maximum to zero, while ports I and III remain closed. In this process, supply port P is connected to port A, whereas port B is connected to meter-out port T. The hydraulic oil enters the high pressure oil chamber (port P), and a portion of the oil enters the drive end of the HCRV to rotate the rotary valve spool (the drive end is similar to a hydraulic motor); the remaining oil enters the rotary valve through port P, valve port II, port A, and oil port L, and then enters the left cylinder chamber successively. The load mass driven by the cylinder barrel moves to the left side along the linear guides, and the oil in the right cylinder chamber flows back into the fuel tank through oil port R, port B, port IV of the value, and port T, successively.

Modeling of the System
To determine the rotation direction conveniently, the displacement of the cylinder is defined as positive when moving to the left and negative when moving to the right; thus, the range of the rotation angle displacement  is changed from   0 4  , the theoretical model of flow areas for the rectangular orifice is shown in Equation (1) [21]; when (1) is rewritten as Equation (2): where vr x is the axial width of the rectangular orifice, N is the number of the groove, r is the valve spool radius, and α is the central angle of one groove, according to the rotary valve's geometric structure, Similarly, when the angular displacement θ changes from 2α to 3α, valve ports I and III remain open and their flow areas increase from zero to the maximum, while valve ports II and IV remain closed. When the angular displacement increases from 3α to 4α, the flow areas of valve ports I and III decrease from the maximum to zero, while ports II and IV remain closed. In this process, port P is connected to port B, whereas port A is connected to meter-out port T. One part of the hydraulic oil still enters the motor and drives the rotary valve spool to rotate, and the remaining oil enters the rotary valve successively through port P, valve port III, port B, and oil port R, and then enters the right cylinder chamber. The load mass driven by the cylinder barrel moves to the right along the linear guides and the oil in the left cylinder chamber flows back to the fuel tank through oil port L, port A, valve port I, and port T, successively.
The structures and working principles of the triangular and semicircular valves are the same as that of the rectangular valve.

Modeling of the System
To determine the rotation direction conveniently, the displacement of the cylinder is defined as positive when moving to the left and negative when moving to the right; thus, the range of the rotation angle displacement θ is changed from [0, 4α] to [−2α, 2α].
Therefore, when θ ∈ [0, 4α], the theoretical model of flow areas for the rectangular orifice is shown in Equation (1) [21]; when θ ∈ [−2α, 2α], Equation (1) is rewritten as Equation (2): where x vr is the axial width of the rectangular orifice, N is the number of the groove, r is the valve spool radius, and α is the central angle of one groove, according to the rotary valve's geometric structure, α = π/(2N).
Rewriting the equation of flow areas change for triangular orifice as (4), corresponding to (3): where x vt is the axial width of the triangular orifice.
Reformulating the equation of flow areas for the semicircular orifice from (5) into (6): where x vh is the axial width of the semicircular orifice, and x vh = 1 2 αr = π 4N r. In the case of θ ∈ [0, 4α], the rectangular, triangular, and semicircular orifice flow areas as Equations Based on the Equations (2), (4), and (6), an AMESim ® model of the HCRV excitation system was established. By referring to relevant literature [22,23], a slide valve model was selected to replace the rotary valve, and it was necessary to ensure that the change rule of the slide valve port flow areas is consistent with that of the rotary valve. The relevant parameters related to the valve port flow area in AMESim ® are the diameter and the axial displacement of the spool, which can be described by the following equation Assuming that the diameter of the slide valve is the same as that of the rotary valve, 2 d r  , the maximum displacement can be obtained by Equation (8).
The reversing period of the slide valve spool model should be the same as that of the rotary valve, so the relationship between the axial displacement x and the rotation speed n of the rotary valve spool can be calculated easily.
The simulation model of the HCRV excitation system constructed in the simulation platform AMESim ® is shown in Figure 4 and the corresponding main parameters are given in Table 1.

The reversing period of the slide valve spool model should be the same as that of the rotary valve, so the relationship between the axial displacement x and the rotation speed n of the rotary valve spool can be calculated easily.

Simulation Results and Parameters Analysis
Figures 5 and 6 show pressures and flows of the hydraulic cylinder's two chambers. In a steady state, the pressure and flow waveforms of the cylinder's two chambers are symmetrical to each other and the phase difference is 0.002 s. However, as soon as the rotary valve reverses, the valve port flow will increase significantly, and such instantaneous flow will exceed the system oil supply flow even after several times, which can momentarily lead to a strong hydraulic impact. Therefore, a proportional flow control valve is introduced into the HCRV excitation system to damp the hydraulic impact.

Therefore, a proportional flow control valve is introduced into the HCRV excitation system to damp the hydraulic impact.   The main parameters that influence the waveform of the HCRV excitation system include the spool rotation speed, oil supply pressure, orifice number, orifice shape, orifice axial length, transient flow torque, and load mass.

The Influence of Different Spool Rotation Speeds on the Excitation Waveform
From the formula f = (n · N)/60 [21], when the orifice number is constant, the reversing frequency of the HCRV exciter is proportional to the spool rotation speed, that is, as the spool rotation speed increases, the reversing frequency of the HCRV exciter increases, and vice versa. It can be seen from Figure 1 that the spool rotation speed is positive in relation to the proportional flow control valve opening and the oil supply pressure; this is because the change in the valve opening or the supply pressure changes the flow rate, which in turn changes the hydraulic motor speed; thus the simulation analysis is carried out in two cases separately. When the proportional flow control valve port is fully open, the relationships of the rotation speed n with the displacement y p , velocity v p , and acceleration a p of the HCRV excitation system are shown in Figures 7-9. When the supply pressure is 4 MPa, the relationships of the rotation speed n to the displacement y p , velocity v p , and acceleration a p of the HCRV excitation system are shown in Figures 10-12. It can be seen that as the spool rotation speed increases, the amplitudes of y p , v p , a p decrease and the amplitude reduction gradually decreases. The main parameters that influence the waveform of the HCRV excitation system include the spool rotation speed, oil supply pressure, orifice number, orifice shape, orifice axial length, transient flow torque, and load mass.

From the formula =( ) / 60 f n N  [21], when the orifice number is constant, the reversing frequency of the HCRV exciter is proportional to the spool rotation speed, that is, as the spool rotation speed increases, the reversing frequency of the HCRV exciter increases, and vice versa. It can be seen from Figure 1 that the spool rotation speed is positive in relation to the proportional flow control valve opening and the oil supply pressure; this is because the change in the valve opening or the supply pressure changes the flow rate, which in turn changes the hydraulic motor speed; thus the simulation analysis is carried out in two cases separately. When the proportional flow control

The Influence of Different Oil Supply Pressures on the Excitation Waveform
The relationships of the oil supply pressure s p with the displacement p y , velocity p v , acceleration p a , and reversing frequency f curves are shown in Figures 13-16. Figures 13 and 14 indicate that as s p increases, the amplitude of p y and p v decreases gradually, and the amount of reduction in amplitude also decreases. Figured 15 and 16 show that p a and f increase as the oil supply pressure increases, because the motor branch and the rotary valve branch of the HCRV share the same hydraulic source. As the oil supply pressure increases, the flow into the motor branch also increases, causing the motor rotary speed to increase.

The Influence of Different Oil Supply Pressures on the Excitation Waveform
The relationships of the oil supply pressure p s with the displacement y p , velocity v p , acceleration a p , and reversing frequency f curves are shown in Figures 13-16. Figures 13 and 14 indicate that as p s increases, the amplitude of y p and v p decreases gradually, and the amount of reduction in amplitude also decreases. Figures 15 and 16 show that a p and f increase as the oil supply pressure increases, because the motor branch and the rotary valve branch of the HCRV share the same hydraulic source. As the oil supply pressure increases, the flow into the motor branch also increases, causing the motor rotary speed to increase.

The Influence of Different Orifice Numbers on the Excitation Waveform
The relationships of the orifice number N with the displacement p y , velocity p v , acceleration p a , and reversing frequency f are shown in Figures 17-20. Figures 17-19 indicate that as N increases, the amplitudes of p y , p v , and p a decrease gradually, and the amplitude reduction decreases too. Figure 20 shows that f increases with N , and the reversing frequency's increase is proportional to the variation of the orifice number. According to the structure and working principle of the rotary valve, when the orifice number is doubled, the center angle corresponding to a single groove on the shoulder of the valve core becomes halved, and the peak value of the single orifice flow area is also halved. Therefore, in a vibration period, the peak value and change law of the orifice flow area remain unchanged. However, from formula = 60  n N f , when the spool rotation speed is constant, f is proportional to the orifice number N (in other words, the change of the orifice number will cause another system parameter's change-the reversing frequency), which means that the spool rotation speed increases.

However, from formula = 60 f , when the spool rotation speed is constant, f is proportional to the orifice number N (in other words, the change of the orifice number will cause another system parameter's change-the reversing frequency), which means that the spool rotation speed increases.

The Influence of Different Orifice Shapes on the Excitation Waveform
The relationships of the orifice shape with the displacement y p , velocity v p , acceleration a p , and reversing frequency f are shown in Figures 21-24. Figure 21 indicates that the amplitude of y p under the triangular and semicircular orifice is larger than that under the rectangular orifice, and the amplitude difference between the two orifice shapes is negligible. Figure 22 shows that the peak values of v p under the three orifice shapes are close to each other. Figure 23 indicates that the peak value of a p under the rectangular orifice is the maximum, and the peak value of a p under the semicircular orifice is the minimum. Figure 24 shows that f under the rectangular orifice is greater than that under the triangular and semicircular orifices, and f values under the triangular and semicircular orifices are not much different. From Equations (2), (4), and (6), when the supply pressure is constant, the flow under the rectangular orifice is the largest, which leads to the amplitudes of y p , v p , and a p under the rectangular orifice being larger than under the triangular and semicircular orifice. Moreover, in this case, the flow into the hydraulic motor branch also increases, which leads to a higher reversing frequency under the rectangular orifice.

Figure 21 indicates that the amplitude of p y under the triangular and semicircular orifice is larger than that under the rectangular orifice, and the amplitude difference between the two orifice shapes is negligible. Figure 22 shows that the peak values of p v under the three orifice shapes are close to each other. Figure 23 indicates that the peak value of p a under the rectangular orifice is the maximum, and the peak value of p a under the semicircular orifice is the minimum. Figure 24 shows that f under the rectangular orifice is greater than that under the triangular and semicircular orifices, and f values under the triangular and semicircular orifices are not much different.

Moreover, in this case, the flow into the hydraulic motor branch also increases, which leads to a higher reversing frequency under the rectangular orifice.

The Influence of Different Orifice Axial Lengths on the Excitation Waveform
The relationships of the orifice axial length vr x with the displacement p y , velocity p v , acceleration p a , and reversing frequency f are shown in Figures 25-28. It can be seen from Formula (3) that the greater the orifice axial length, the larger the flow area of the valve port. Therefore, when the spool rotation speed and oil supply pressure are constant, the amplitudes of p y , p v , and p a increase as the orifice axial length increases. Figure 28 shows that f is not affected by the orifice axial length. In this case, the flow in the rotary valve branch increases as the orifice

It can be seen from Formula (3) that the greater the orifice axial length, the larger the flow area of the valve port. Therefore, when the spool rotation speed and oil supply pressure are constant, the amplitudes of p y , p v , and p a increase as the orifice axial length increases. Figure 28 shows that f is not affected by the orifice axial length. In this case, the flow in the rotary valve branch increases as the orifice axial length increases, which leads the amplitudes of p y , p v , and p a to increase, while the flow in the hydraulic motor branch is almost unchanged.

The Influence of Different Orifice Axial Lengths on the Excitation Waveform
The relationships of the orifice axial length x vr with the displacement y p , velocity v p , acceleration a p , and reversing frequency f are shown in Figures 25-28. It can be seen from Formula (3) that the greater the orifice axial length, the larger the flow area of the valve port. Therefore, when the spool rotation speed and oil supply pressure are constant, the amplitudes of y p , v p , and a p increase as the orifice axial length increases. Figure 28 shows that f is not affected by the orifice axial length. In this case, the flow in the rotary valve branch increases as the orifice axial length increases, which leads the amplitudes of y p , v p , and a p to increase, while the flow in the hydraulic motor branch is almost unchanged.

The Influence of Different Loads on the Excitation Waveform
The relationships of the load m with the displacement y p , velocity v p , acceleration a p , and reversing frequency f are shown in Figures 33-36. As the external load increases, the amplitude of y p and the peak values of v p and a p decrease. Figure 36 shows that the load has little effect on the reversing frequency f , which reflects the load adaptability of the proposed system.  Figure 36 shows that the load has little effect on the reversing frequency f , which reflects the load adaptability of the proposed system.
