Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences

Students will be acquainted with three qualitative grades of hydraulic mechanism control: classical control technique, proportional control technique, and servo technique. Students will learn to distinguish two basic methods of hydraulic mechanisms control: valve control and volumetric control. They are able to analyze both of these methods especially in terms of control accuracy, dynamic characteristics, energy performance, and price. In the case of proportional control are able to perform design the control system (synthesis) for a specific application. In the case of servomechanisms, they will be able to do the same for simpler applications.

Summary

In the subject of Hydraulic Mechanisms Control, the students will learn about volumetric control and variable resistance control, dynamics of the controlled system, thermal balance of controlled hydrostatic drive and applications of control technique in hydrostatic mechanisms. Proportional control technique and servo technique are discussed in detail, where the knowledge of the subject of Fundamentals of Automation and Dynamics of Fluid Mechanisms is used. Students will learn the composition of speed and position servomechanisms. Furthermore, they will learn the principles of commissioning and maintenance of hydraulic proportional components and electrohydraulic servo valves and the issues of filtration of hydraulic devices with servo valves and proportional valves.
