Abstract Investigation of Oil Film Thickness (OFT) in balanced vane pumps is particularly
relevant as they could experiment both loss of contact and elasto-hydrodynamic lubrication …

This paper analyzes the kinematics of the vane-cam ring mechanism in balanced vane
pumps, by considering both vanes with centered and not-centered circular tip. The motion of …

The paper describes the modeling and the experimental tests of a variable displacement
vane pump for engine lubrication. The approach used for the simulation has involved three …

The simulation of lubricating pumps for internal combustion engines has always represented
a challenge due to the high aeration level of the working fluid. In fact, the delivery pressure …

Variable displacement hydraulic machines offer a very promising alternative and energy
saving solution for many applications in mobile machines, robots and other applications. In …

The paper brings to evidence critical issues in the design of variable displacement vane
pump controls for ICE lubrication. Tight packaging, high rotational speed and variable …

The paper describes the modelling and the experimental tests of a variable displacement
