Equal coded digital hydraulics in low temperatures using water-glycol solution
In this thesis work, effects of arctic temperatures for digital hydraulic system was researched. Hydraulic medium was environmentally friendly and additive free 50 wt% water-glycol solution. Dynamics of on/off valves, steady-state properties of on/off valves and system’s hydraulic natural frequency...

In this thesis work, effects of arctic temperatures for digital hydraulic system was researched. Hydraulic medium was environmentally friendly and additive free 50 wt% water-glycol solution. Dynamics of on/off valves, steady-state properties of on/off valves and system’s hydraulic natural frequency were qualities under inspection. These qualities were chosen as they are key qualities for digital hydraulics. On the other hand, this research was conducted to determine usability of commercially avail-able on/off valves, when controller applying multi-valve pulse modulation and multi-valve pulse frequency modulation is used. Another objective was to find out, which method might be preferable to compensate the changing properties of system to accuracy of control. Research was conducted as simulation and experimental study. Simulations were minor part of the research and were performed to validate the implemented controller.
