| Summary: | This article studies the cavitation performance and preventing method of the hydromechanical pressure compensation independent metering system (HPCIMS). Compared with the conventional load sensing system (CLSS), the meter-in and meter-out orifices of HPCIMS can be regulated independently. A quasi-static behavior analysis of cavitation performance was applied to the HPCIMS and CLSS. The meter-in pressure equation of HPCIMS showed that keeping the ratio of the meter-in and meter-out orifices greater than the minimum value can avoid the cavitation phenomenon. Systems parameters were then kept as constant, and the key parameters related to cavitation performance of the two systems were compared by varying external force. Comparison results show that the cavitation phenomenon in the meter-in chamber of CLSS with the external active load is inevitable, but in HPCIMS, it can prevent the cavitation phenomenon by changing the ratio of the meter-in and meter-out orifices, so the HPCIMS has the cavitation prevention potential.
