Information

This is a model of a control valve with five ports and two states. The valve has a tank port t, a pressure port p, two load ports a and b, and a pilot port p1. The insignal, u, to the spool is the pressure on port p1. The valve is controlled by a hydraulic spool with first-order dynamics; see SpoolH.


Control valve with four ports and two states


Valve with no overlap at 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.
