We study the wear-induced material loss of the pump components and the impact of this material loss on the volumetric efficiency. The results are combined with an established backflow model to implement a backflow calculation procedure that is adaptive to wear. We use a laboratory test setup with a highly abrasive fluid and operate a pump from new to worn condition to validate our approach. The obtained measurement data show that the presented virtual sensor is capable of calculating the flow rate of a pump being subject to wear during its regular operation.展开更多

The relationship between SrAl 2O 4∶Eu powder processing and fluorescence effect was studied. The glass material with lower refractive index was added to the SrAl 2O 4∶Eu based ceramics. The diffusive reflectivity and the influence of fluorescence effect on reflection spectra of the ceramics were investigated. Some experimental results can be used for evaluating technical feasibility of the SrAl 2O 4∶Eu based ceramics used for laser reflectors.展开更多
