In order to study the flow pulsation and outlet pressure characteristics of the roller piston pump, a CFD numerical simulation model was established based on the motion law and structure of the pump, and its internal flow field and pressure field were analyzed in detail through CFD numerical simulation. The results show that the pressure and flow changes inside the plunger working chamber indicate that there is no structural flow pulsation in the pump, but when the suction and discharge chambers and the distribution window were switched, flow backflow occurs due to the pressure difference. Theoretical analysis show that under the conditions of 3000 r/min and 5 MPa, the flow pulsation and pressure pulsation are as 23.4% and 9.8% respectively. Finally, the outlet pressure of the roller piston pump was tested by building a special test bench for outlet pressure testing. Experimental data show that the pressure pulsation value of the pump under this working condition is as 11.25%, and the CFD simulation result is as 9.8%. The experimental results were consistent with the CFD numerical simulation results, which verified the accuracy of the CFD numerical simulation and provided guidance for the subsequent reduction of pulsation.
在泵运行期间,柱塞腔的几何形状会随着时间的推移而不断变化,因此,需要采用动态网格进行模拟。滚子柱塞泵包含两种不同的运动方式:一种是配流轴绕中心轴线旋转;另一种为柱塞在凸轮导轨的约束下进行轴向往复运动。为准确模拟这两种不同形式的运动,需要分别采用滑移网格技术和动网格技术,以保证计算精度。配流轴的旋转运动采用滑移网格技术定义,而柱塞腔的膨胀与压缩则使用动网格技术定义。此外还借助了用户自定义函数(user defined function, UDF)来编写每个柱塞腔的运动规律,以控制各柱塞的吸油和排油运动。以上手段的综合应用能够更准确地模拟滚子柱塞泵的运行过程,全面考虑不同类型的运动,确保模拟结果的准确性。
