Analysis and experiment of HMT stationary shift control considering the effect of oil bulk modulus

In order to improve the shift quality of hydro-mechanical continuously variable transmission, the effect of tangent bulk modulus and different control methods on the shift quality were analyzed. Theoretical analysis and experimental study on the tangent bulk modulus of oil were carried out to obtain the effect law of air content on the tangent bulk modulus of oil. A four-cavity model of a closed hydraulic circuit was established based on a two-stage arithmetic type hydro-mechanical transmission. By means of simulation analysis and experimental study, the effect of the tangent bulk modulus of oil on the shift quality is studied. The lean control method of reasonably controlling displacement ratio and prolonging the reverse time of load torque is put forward. The results show that this method can reduce the fluctuations of the speed of the fixed displacement motor and the oil pressure of the original low-pressure side. This method can also improve the shift quality and provide reference for the study of the shift process of hydro-mechanical continuously variable transmission.
