As a further modification, a small actuating piston is placed at each end of the main spool, Fig. 3, to increase the longitudinal velocity for a given pilot-fluid flow rate. Trial and error would normally be used to calculate the most effective diameter for the actuating piston. In this procedure we will use a diameter d x ϭ 1.4 in (3.56 cm) for this small actuating piston. If the dimensions and operating pressures are unchanged, analyze the valve for the same unknowns as above. Calculation Procedure: 1. Compute the axial force on the main spool of this valve The forces acting on the main spool at maximum velocity are: Pilot backpressure, p B ; viscous damping force, D V ; and radial jet force P , Fig. 2. From the equation, rad P ϭ 2F ƒA ⌬P as r M where the symbols are as given, Table 2. Then, P ax ϭ 2(0.04)(0.6)(1.2)(450) ϭ 26 lb (115.6 N). converting to pressure by dividing by the area of the main spool valve end, we have 26/4.9 ϭ 5.3 lb / in 2 (36.5 kPa). 2. Compute the combined hydrodynamic resistance of the valve Provisionally, estimate that D V is equivalent to 3.2 lb/in 2 (22 kPa) and P B ϭ pilot- valve backpressure ϭ 20 lb/in 2 (138.8 kPa). The combined hydrodynamic resis- tance is then the sum of: Radial pressure, lb/in 2 (kPa) ϩ Viscous drag, lb/in 2 (kPa) ϩ Pilot-valve backpressure, lb/in 2 (kPa). Or combined hydrodynamic resistance ϭ 5.3 ϩ 3.2 ϩ 20 ϭ 28.5 lb / in 2 (196.4 kPa).

Calculate the pilot-valve flow rate The pilot-valve pressure differential, delta P ϭ 100 Ϫ 28.5 ϭ 71.5 lb/in 2 (492.6 kPa). Hence, the valve flow rate is, using the equation below 2⌬p q ϭ ƒa o Ί where q ϭ flow, in 3 /s (mL / s); ƒ ϭ flow factor, dimensionless, ranging from 0.55 to 0.70 depending on valve type; a o ϭ cross-sectional area, in 2 (cm 2 ); of the min- imum port opening—usually the drilled port hole; ⌬ p ϭ p Ϫ p 1 ϭ differential pressure, lb/in 2 (kPa) measured across the pilot inlet and outlet ports; p ϭ fluid mass density, lb-s 2 /in 4 , normally 0.000085 for oil. Substituting, q ϭ 0.6 (0.5)[(2)(71.5)/0.000085)] ϭ 40 in 3 /s (656 mL /s), using a value of ƒ ϭ 0.6 for 0.5 this valve. 4. Determine the maximum velocity of the main spool and the viscous damping force The maximum velocity of the main spool, Fig. 1, V ϭ (flow rate, in 3 /s/(area of spool end, in 2 ) ϭ 40 / 4.9 ϭ 8.2 in/s (20.8 cm/s). Knowing the velocity, we can find the damping force, D V , from D LV D ϭ V 6 C ϫ 6.9 ϫ 10 where D ϭ spool diameter, in (cm); L ϭ length of spool lands, in (cm); V ϭ main spool velocity, in / s (cm/s); mu ϭ absolute viscosity, centipoise; C ϭ spool-to-bore radial clearance, in (cm). If the temperature varies more than 30 to 50 degrees, it is nearly impossible to compute the viscous resistance. Substituting, D V ϭ 2.5 (6)(8.2)(80)/(0.0003)(6.9 ϫ 10 6 ) ϭ 3.05 lb/in 2 (21 kPa). Thus, the provisional estimate of D V ϭ 3.2 was close enough (within 4.9 percent) and recalculation is not necessary. 5. Find the accelerating pressure and acceleration time of the spool The forces acting upon the spool during acceleration are: p R , P ax , D V , and F, where F ϭ Ma. Assuming a mean value for initial port opening A M ϭ 0.4 in 2 (2.58 cm 2 ), then from P ϭ 2ƒA ⌬P cos ␣ as M where ␣ normally varies from 70 degrees at initial opening to 90 degrees at full opening. In calculations, use the axial jet pressure during initial opening, and the axial component of radial pressure during the remainder of travel. Substituting, P ax ϭ 2(0.6)(0.4)(450)(0.26) ϭ 56 lb (248.1 N). Then 56 / 4.9 ϭ 11.4 lb / in 2 (78.5 kPa), ␣ ϭ 75 deg; cos ␣ ϭ 0.26. Viscous drag will be the average: D V ϭ 3.2/2 ϭ 1.6 lb/in 2 (11 kPa). Backpres- sure is still p B ϭ 20 lb / in 2 (137.8 kPa). So the total is 11.4 ϩ 1.6 ϩ 20 ϭ 33 lb / in 2 (227.4 kPa). Therefore, accelerating pressure ϭ 100 Ϫ 33 ϭ 67 lb / in 2 (461.6 kPa). Con- verting to force, we have 67 (4.9) ϭ 328 lb (1441.2 N). The acceleration time, t a s ϭ MV /F ϭ 0.05 (8.2)/328 ϭ 0.0013 s.

Determine the main spool displacement and the energization time interval The displacement of the main spool during the acceleration period is negligible, being less than 1 percent of the total stroke. Time for the total stroke of 1.5 in (3.8 cm) is 1.5/8.2 ϭ 0.182 s, and the time interval from energization of the solenoid to completion of the main valve stroke, T ϭ 0.190 s. 7. Analyze the valve with the higher pilot pressure Much larger flow will pass through the pilot valve because of the higher pressure. Maximum velocity period: P ax ϭ 5.3 lb/in 2 (36.5 kPa), the same as before; D V ϭ 7.7 lb/in 2 (53.1 kPa)— a higher estimate, proportional to the anticipated velocity; p B ϭ 20.0 lb/in 2 (137.8 kPa), the same as before. The total is 33.0 lb / in 2 (227.5 kPa). The new ⌬ P ϭ 467 lb/in 2 (3217.6 kPa), and Q ϭ 4.7 (467) ϭ 102 in 3 /s 0.5 (1671.5 mL/s); V ϭ 102/4.9 ϭ 20.8 in / s (52.1 cm/s); D V ϭ 1.82 (20.8) ϭ 37.8 lb (168.1 N) ϭ 7.75 lb / in 2 (53.4 kPa), which proves out the assumption of 7.7 lb /in 2 (53.1 kPa). Accelerating time, t a ϭ (0.05)(20.8)/(2280) ϭ 0.0005 s. The 1.5-in (3.81-cm) stroke takes 1.5/20.8 ϭ 0.072 s. Total time ϭ 0.081 s. The flow rate of the pilot oil is more important than pressure intensity in ob- taining a fast-acting valve. A slightly larger pilot valve and enlarged porting have a marked effect on the operational speed of the main valve. Note that increasing the pilot pressure fivefold, from 100 lb/in 2 to 500 lb / in 2 (689 kPa to 3445 kPa) only doubles the speed of response, from 0.19 s to 0.08 s. Increasing the port area can result in an nearly proportional gain in speed, and no Downloaded from Digital Engineering Library @ McGraw-Hill (www.digitalengineeringlibrary.com) Copyright © 2006 The McGraw-Hill Companies.

Costs of producing a 0.375-in (9.52-mm) pilot spool are not much greater than those for a 0.25-in (6.35- mm) spool. The increase in capacity is 50 percent without the additional heat losses entailed by an increase in pressure. 8.

Related Calculations. Pilot-operated flow-control valves are probably the most common valves used in industrial hydraulic systems. Speed of response of these valves is important during the design and operation of any hydraulic system. The procedure given here analyzes the speed of response of a typical valve in terms of the fluid flow rate, characteristic force-vs-airgap curve of the solenoid; shape, size, clearance, and displacement of each spool; and the fluid viscosity. The method given in this procedure relates the above parameters for the valve in Fig. 1. and can be applied to any other pilot-operated spool valve. And the procedure includes a special technique for a large spool valve, Fig. 3, actuated by a small auxiliary piston. In the sequence of operation of solenoid-energized pilot-operated spool valve, here is what happens. The solenoid is energized, the pilot spool moves quickly to the full open position, Fig. 5, and the main spool is shifted at a rate determined by the amount of fluid that can move through the pilot ports against these five resisting forces: (1) pilot system backpressure, lb/in 2 (kPa); (2) viscous damping force, lb (N); (3) radial jet force, lb (N); (4) axial jet force, lb (N); (5) acceleration force, lb (N).
