A Gain Scheduling Design Method of the Aero-Engine Fuel Servo Constant Pressure Valve with High Accuracy and Fast Response Ability

Constant pressure valve, which has an axially symmetric structure, is an essential component to supply the servo reference pressure for aero-engine hydraulic mechanical control systems, and its performance directly impacts the performance of the control system. This paper constructs a closed-loop disturbance rejection system of the constant pressure valve based on the linear incremental description method, in which the controlled object is the controlled pressure, and the stabilization controller is constructed by the closed-loop feedback motion valve. Meanwhile, the linear models of the closed-loop system are calculated. Subsequently, based on the bode frequency domain characteristic analysis, the accurate influences of the stabilization control gain on the dynamic performance and stability of the system are given. On this basis, a gain scheduling design method of the system is proposed, and the geometry design and implementation method of the inlet orifice is proposed to complete the design work. The simulation results show that under bad conditions, which include the 1 MPa strong step disturbance of the inlet pressure and the step disturbance of the variable outlet flow area, the steady-state working range of the controlled pressure is 1.5 ± 0.01 MPa, the steady-state error is not more than 0.7%, and the regulation time is not more than 0.006 s.
