Chapter 9
High-Temperature and High-Speed Gas
Turbine Pump Electro-Hydraulic
Energy System for Aircraft
This chapter covers the electro-hydraulic servo control technology and its practical
progress of aircraft gas turbine pump; the design theory and technology of the core
components of gas power energy, such as steering gear system, gas generator, and
gas turbine, etc.; starting characteristics of missile gas turbine motor pump with
electro-hydraulic energy combination; basic characteristics and design technology
of missile electro-hydraulic energy system; the power matching design method of
steering gear system; and the design theory of electro-hydraulic energy system for
high-temperature and high-speed gas turbine pump of aircraft is described in detail.
9.1 Electro-Hydraulic Servo Control Technology
of Aircraft Gas Turbine Pump
9.1.1 Overview of Electro-Hydraulic Control Technology
From the development process of electro-hydraulic control technology, we can see
the basis of current technology level and the future development prospects, that is,
the development trend of high power, high voltage, high temperature, high speed,
high reliability, and information management.
The history of hydraulic control technology can be traced back to 240 B.C.,
when an ancient Egyptian invented the first hydraulic servo mechanism in human
history, the water clock. Since then, hydraulic control technology has been stuck in
a long historical process, until the eighteenth century European Industrial
Revolution period. The Industrial revolution has injected considerable vitality into
hydraulic control technology. Many practical inventions have emerged. The
emergence of a variety of hydraulic mechanical devices, especially hydraulic
valves, has greatly increased the influence of hydraulic technology. At the end of
the eighteenth century, hydraulic components such as pumps, hydraulic presses,
