Abstract

Pneumatic circuit protection valves are frequently used in the air supply systems of commercial vehicles. This paper presents a flexible computational simulation tool being applied in industrial research and development related to complex mechanical and fluid dynamical aspects in such devices. The numerical model has been created with AMESim, a commercial simulation environment, and then validated by simplified experiments. The comparative numerical and experimental study confirmed that the validated numerical model is able to predict the oscillatory behavior appearing in certain setups, and the system parameter alterations suggested by the simulation successfully eliminated the harmful vibration in the experimental setups as well.
