ATA was selected by a new customer to provide an oil pump performance variant of our Ensure™ test systems. The task was simple, benchmark the performance of existing and future pump models.
Intelligent monitoring of test equipment components such as torque sensors and encoders would ensure damage risk to the equipment would be minimized. Sub-system building blocks resulted in lower cost and uncertainty in design, and improved software and system expansion capability. The test stand features an oil-cooled AC motor and universal mounting fixture, enabling testing of many other parts including balancer shafts and vibration dampeners.
Testing factors and variables included:
fluid losses
pressure drops
harmonics
temperature gradients
pressure vs. flow sweeps through various RPM ranges
pressure pulse characterization
cavitation detection based on pressure vs. flow curve
Design features to enhance automation and flexibility:
