Information

This is a model of a control valve with four ports and two states. The valve has a tank port t, a pressure port p, and two load ports a and b. The insignal to the spool is u. The valve is controlled by an electrical spool with dynamics; see SpoolE2Windings.


Control valve with four ports and two states


Valve with no overlap at the center position. At the center position, there is flow from a to t and from p to b.


Valve at left position, u = 1; there is flow from p to a and from b to t

Implementation

This valve basically consists of orifices controlled by a spool.
