    This document discusses different types of pumps and valves used in hydraulic systems. It describes constant delivery pumps that supply fluid at a constant rate and constant pressure pumps that supply fluid at a variable volume while controlling pressure. It also discusses relief valves that relieve excess pressure, pressure maintaining valves that maintain primary system pressure, and pressure reducing valves that lower pressure for certain services. Additionally, it summarizes various flow control valves like non-return valves and restrictor valves, as well as shuttle valves and sequence valves. Finally, it provides examples of system control for cabin pressurization and ditching control safety valves.

    Pumps

    Engine driven pumps (EDP) or electrically driven pumps may be classified


    as follows:
    Constant Delivery (Fixed Volume) Type Pump(ACOV)
    Constant Pressure (Variable Volume) Pump

    Constant Delivery (Fixed Volume) Type Pump.


    This pump supplies fluid at a constant rate and therefore needs an automatic
    cut-out or relief valve.

    Constant Pressure (Variable Volume) Pump.


    This pump supplies fluid at a variable volume and controls its own pressure,
    this type of pump is typically fitted in modern aircraft .

    Hydraulic Lock
    When fluid is trapped between the piston of the jack and a non-return valve, a
    “hydraulic lock” is said to be formed

    PRESSURE CONTROL VALVES

    Relief valves All act as safety devices to relieve excess pressure in the system
    back to reservoir.

     expansion (thermal relief).


     ultimate system protection (full flow relief).
     mechanical overload protection (flap relief).

    Pressure Maintaining Valves. or priority valve, is basically a relief valve


    which maintains the pressure in a primary service at a value suitable for
    operation of that service, regardless of secondary service requirements.
    Pressure Reducing Valves. A pressure reducing valve is often used to reduce
    main system pressure to a value suitable for operation of a service such as
    the wheel brakes.

    Flow Control
     Non-return Valves(One Way Check valve or Non-reversible valve)The
    most common device used to control the flow of fluid is the non-return
    valve, which permits full flow in one direction, but blocks flow in the
    opposite direction.

     One Way Check valve or Non-reversible valve similar in construction to


    a non-return valve, but a restrictor valve is designed to permit limited
    flow in one direction and full flow in the other direction(used to slow
    down flap retraction or landing gear extension (up line for both)

    Shuttle Valves. These are often used in landing gear and brake systems, to
    enable an alternate system to operate the same actuators as the normal system.
    Sequence Valves. When there is a sequence to flow, often fitted in a landing
    gear circuit to ensure correct operation of the landing gear doors and jacks
    System Control

     Cabin Pressurization is controlled by having a constant mass flow of air


    entering the cabin and then varying the rate at which it is discharged
    to atmosphere.
     The constant mass flow of air is supplied by the air conditioning
    system via the mass flow controller and is discharged to atmosphere by
    the discharge or outflow valves.
     Closing the valve reduces the outflow and increases the pressure,
    Opening the valve increases the outflow and reduces the pressure.
    Ditching control

     Closes all the discharge valves to reduce the flow of water I to the cabin
    in the event of a forced landing in water.
    Safety valve. A simple mechanical outwards pressure relief valve fitted to
    relieve positive pressure in the cabin when the maximum pressure differential
    allowed for the aircraft type is exceeded i.e. prevents the structural max. diff.
    being exceeded.
    Inwards relief (inwards vent) valve.A simple mechanical inwards relief
    valve is fitted to prevent excessive negative differential pressure which will
    open if the pressure outside the aircraft exceeds that inside the aircraft by
    0.5 to 1.0 psi.
