Development of a high-speed solenoid valve: an investigation of the importance of the armature mass on the dynamic response

Abstract

Traditional design criteria for electromagnetic valves are discussed. Performance criteria for them are also shown. A method for investigating the armature mass importance on the EFI performance is proposed. This method is based on energy losses of a mass-spring-damper system (MKsB). It was found a range of values in which the dynamic response can be improved. Results are verified and discussed.
