Design of a measuring system for the testing of pneumatic powertrains

Abstract

This publication presents a new generation measuring system, designed and constructed for the testing of pneumatic powertrains, at the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Debrecen, as well as its design and assembly process. It also describes test measurements applying the measuring system together with their results. During the test measurements, the pressure in the cylinder and in other parts of the system were measured, as well as the kinematic functions of the piston, during the operation of the powertrain under loaded conditions. Finally, conclusions are drawn, and further development directions are set.
