Abstract:

Hydrodynamic braking control system, the controlling system suggested for hydrodynamical brake consists of closed hydraulic circuit, forming a working space of the hydraulic moderator, working medium cooler, suction and feed pipes, make-up tube, power tubes, distributor valve and controlling member connected to the latter. It is distinguished by providing the system with additional hydraulic circuit consisting of channels connecting the suction side to the pressure side of the main circuit through a distributor valve. Accordingly, the plunger of the distributing pilot valve is made with a collar for throttling the channels of the additional hydraulic circuit on putting the hydraulic moderator on. This regulates the braking moment on the rotor at constant pressure in the make-up tube. Author
