Abstract

The article deals with the influence of oil viscosity on pulsating flow in a pipe. A hydraulic resistance is placed at the end of the pipe. A pulsating pressure signal is generated by proportional directional valve. Time dependencies of pressure drops for different frequencies of the pulsating signal are measured at the beginning and the end of the pipe. A mathematical model of the hydraulic system is constructed using Matlab SimHydraulics software. There are simulated time dependencies of pressures at the beginning and at the end of the pipe. They are subsequently compared with an experiment.
