Dragan Knežević

 

The paper defines methods of mathematical modeling of response times of pneumatic blast-controllable valve systems as well as methods of evaluating the model  accordance with experimental research results. The analytical expressions of characteristic partial correlation coefficients and multiple correlation coefficients have been defined for qualitative model evaluation. A program has been realized for finding out a model of valve response time and for qualitative model evaluation. The application of described methods has been illustrated by defining response times of the blast-controlable valve of a mechana pneumatic system, controlability being dependent on working and geometric characteristics of valves, model accordance evaluation and experimental research results. The valves system response time models are defined. The level of agreement between the model obtained and experimental results is also estimated.

 

Key words: pneumatic valve, response time, algorithm, mathematical modeling, model, correlation coefficient, model evaluation.
