OSS thruster valve
On energisation of the solenoid coil, the pilot valve opens due to the
discharged to the nozzle through the pilot valve port, in turn, causing
a differential pressure across the main poppet.
The main poppet now opens under the influence of this differential

Magnetic force exceeds the sum of the other two forces, there would be
net upward force acting on the system and the pilot valve would start
moving up under this net resultant force which is nothing but the
difference of magnetic force and the sum of pressure force and spring
force.
It is equal to the difference between the pressure acting above the pilot
poppet and the pressure acting outside the valve multiplied by the
sealing area.
Pressure force
= (2.8 0.1) 0.3848
=1.038 N
Thus, net force acting downwards which is responsible for closing the
17
Now, this is the force under which the pilot poppet is moving. On dividing
this force by the mass of moving parts in pilot poppet, we get the
acceleration experienced by the pilot in that particular time interval.
Now, the velocity at any time t can be calculated from the basic kinematic
S=u t +0.5.at2
Lp(t1) =vt0.dt + 0.5.a.dt2 Where Lpt1 is the lift of the pilot poppet
For the next time interval, the net force gets increased by ks.Lp (t1) since the
18
19
According to the figure the pilot starts to move from the third millisecond and reaches its
maximum displacement at 5 milliseconds and remains at that position for the remaining
time span.
From this figure we can see that once the pilot starts to move it takes only very less time,
force can produce a high acceleration coupled with the small distance 0.2mm that it need
to travel .
Now the total electrical delay which is the time taken by the pilot valve to reach its fully
opened condition from the point at which the solenoid is switched on is obtained from
the figure as 5 milliseconds
20
and also pressure difference between main chamber and main poppet
cavity is less than that of main poppet cavity and nozzle cavity so the
mass of gas entering into main poppet cavity will be less than mass of
gas leaving main poppet cavity .
Hence there will be a drop in pressure in the main poppet cavity due to
the drop in mass. This drop in pressure in main poppet cavity causes a
net resultant pressure force to act on main poppet, which acts against
main spring and there by causes the main poppet to open.
21
22
In the initial stage the orifice A12 (which represents the feeding orifice)
is open while the orifice A23 (which represents the venting orifice
operated by pilot valve) is closed.
Under this condition, the pressure within the main poppet cavity is the
source pressure P1. Now let us assume that A23 is opened for a small
time interval dt .There will be a gas flow between main poppet cavity
and Nozzle cavity, depending on the pressure ratio the flow can be
either a choked flow or non choked flow.
Calculating mass flow rate in the above specified condition.
mact= Cd. .A
23
Due to this flow pressure inside the main poppet cavity drops from P1to
P2. Since P2 is less than P1, there will be again a flow of gas from
source tank to main poppet cavity, due to which the final pressure
inside the main poppet cavity will be at P2 higher than P3but less than
P1so here in the simulation model the approach followed is
1.Calculate critical pressure ratio for the used gas(Rc =
24
is
Due to this pressure drop now P2 becomes lesser than P1 hence mass
starts flowing from main chamber cavity to main valve cavity. Hence
pressure inside main valve cavity tends to increase. For the same time
step the increase of pressure inside main valve is calculated in
following way:
25
26
Since the area A12 is lesser than the area A23 and also pressure difference
between main chamber cavity and main valve cavity is less than that of
main valve cavity and nozzle cavity hence net mass flow rate from
main chamber cavity to main valve cavity is lesser than the net mass
flow rate from main valve cavity to nozzle cavity.
So after each time step a drop in pressure inside main valve cavity will
occur. This drop in pressure of main valve cavity causes the pressure
force generation which acts on the main poppet.
27
The main poppet valve will have upward motion only when pressure
28
For this short time interval dt, difference between pressure force and combined
force constituted by spring and O-ring would be responsible for main poppet
movement.
Now, this is the force under which the main poppet is moving. On dividing
this force by the mass of moving parts in main poppet, we get the acceleration
experienced by the main poppet in that particular time interval.
.
Now, the velocity and displacement at any time t can be calculated from the
basic kinematic equation i.e. v = u + at , S=u t +0.5.at 2 which can be written
for the time interval dt as
Vt1= vt0+ a.dt, Lp(t1) =vt0.dt + 0.5.a.dt2
For the next time interval, the net force gets increased by ks.Lp
(t1)
since the

The main seat internal diameter is 5.5 mm, for flat poppet configuration, the
poppet travel to get an effective port opening of 4.5 mm, comes to 0.92 mm and
is rounded to 1.0mm.
From the figure we can see that
movement
of
main
poppet
commences at 72nd ms and from there
it took 6 ms to reach its fully opened
position.
Main poppet to reach its fully
opened position starting from point at
which the solenoid valve is switched
on is found to be 78 ms.

The material used as metal is stainless steel AISI 430 and as plastic is
main poppet. Since the sealing diameter are very less in the compare to
main poppet. This slot will never experience stresses above the elastic
limit. Hence finite element analysis is not carried out for pilot poppet.

Conclusion
53
Here in this project, I am tried to model the valve mathematically and there by
to produce a complete idea about the response time and performance of the
OSS Thruster Valve.
Results generated by the model are compared with the test results and there by
the model is validated. Validated model is used to study the effect of critical
design parameters on response time.
It was formed that maximum seat stress expected is 15.79 N/mm 2 the
allowable seat stress for polycarbonate material is 70 N/mm 2, which is the
margin of 4.4 existing in the seat stress. This is safe and ensures trouble free
performance. Hence stress in sealing mechanism is not a life limiting
parameter for this valve design.
