Example from AC-3.1.6 and ACB-3.1.2. Dynamic braking and Free whl.
When running in free circulation and dynamic braking the load pressure, motor pressure losses appear as heat
in the circuit. To maintain oil temperature within acceptable limits an exchange of oil may need to be made.

Example; Motor CA100 with a displacement of Vi=6.28 litres/rev running at n=150rpm.


Flow (q) through the motor q=Vixn = 6.28 x 150 = 942 litres/min.
The calculation demonstrates how to establish the total pressure drop.

dp = Pressure loss Am to Cm in the valve=21.5bar (from Pressure against flow diagram


(page4 AC-3.1.6)
dp1= Pressure loss for the motor = 11.5bar (see Motor Product manual AC-4.3/2ports)
dp2= Pressure loss generated by the load = 100bar (Value for dynamic braking.)
Pressure loss = 21.5 + 11.5 + 100 = 133bar.
Power loss E = q(dp + dp1 + dp2) / 600 (kW) = 942lpmx133 / 600 = 208.8kW
Required flushing flow to keep the temperature at maximum dt of 30 degrC (54degrF)
warmer than the flushing oil.
q flushing = 1.1 x E (l/min) = 1.1 x 208.8 = 230 lpm
q flushing = 0.22 x E (US gallon/min) = 0.22 x 208.8 = 46 US gallon/min.
This flushing oil flow would normally be introduced via Cm leg (low pressure) of the valve.
