Model Based Controller Design for Position Control of Servo Controlled Hydraulic Actuator against Air Entrainment
Abstract: Position control is important for numerous industrial and aircraft applications. Electro-hydraulic actuators are used for position control for advantages they provide over other actuation systems. The hydraulic fluid used for actuation, though desired to be incompressible, has some compressibility in practice. Entrainment of air in the fluid increases compressibility effect by reducing the effective bulk modulus. Reduced bulk modulus makes position control difficult. The paper studies the effect of effective …
