TEP4195 TURBOMACHINERY TUTORIAL QUESTIONS FOR COURSE TEP 4195 Data: Hydraulic Oil Density Absolute viscosity Spool valve discharge coefficient 870 kg/m3 0.03 Ns/m2 0.62. 1) A hydrostatic transmission has a variable displacement axial-piston pump, with a maximum displacement of 12 cm 3/rev, and a fixed capacity motor of 120cm 3/rev displacement. The motor speed is 138 rev/min when driving a load torque of 200Nm and when the pump is set to maximum displacement and driven at a speed of 1450 rev/min. Note This information enables the value of the total leakage and volumetric efficiency to be determined by calculating the ideal pump flow and motor speed. The total leakage is assumed to be proportional to the pressure. If the load is increased to 400 Nm and the pump control set to 50% maximum capacity, estimate: (a) the steady state speed of the motor (58.5 rev/min) (b) the input power to the pump and the overall efficiency (3.6 kW, 69%) The pump mechanical efficiency is 95% at full stroke and 90% at half stroke. mechanical efficiency is 95%.
