- The cross-angle, illustrated in this paper, is a fixed displacement angle around the axis perpendicular to the normal trunnion axis. With the cross-angle, the traditional piston dead centres will change as the normal displacement angle is varied. The result is a behaviour similar to thal of the revolving valve plate technique. but without any movable parts. When the cross-angle is used in a constant pressure system with a variable pump, the desired dead centre for optimal pro-compression coincides with the obtained dead centre for a wide range of displacement angles. This implies that when the cross-angle is used, the flow ripple becomes less sensitive to changes in displacement angles. The cross-angle does not constitute an alternative to the different design features developed, but rather as complement for preserved effective flow ripple reduction over a wide range of displacement angles.ln this study. simulation-based optimisations, employing non-gradient optimisation techniques such as genetic algorithms and the Complex method, are used in order to find the optimal cross-angle for a variable displacement pump. Furthermore. with the help of optimisation, the trade-offs between attributes such as low flow ripples, avoidance of large cylinder pressure-peaks, and cavitation have been studied. Increased insight is thereby gained into what possibilities the cross-angle offers regarding reduction of pump ripple for a variable displacement pump.
