What is a pneumatic system
•
Pneumatic system uses compressible fluid as working medium and it is usually air.
•
In pneumatic systems, compressibility effects of gas cannot be neglected and hence dynamic equations are obtained using conservation of mass.
•
In pneumatic systems, change in fluid inertia energy and the fluid’s internal thermal energy are assumed negligible.
•
In pneumatic system, the mass and volume flow rates are not readily interchangeable

Description of Pneumatic system
•
Pneumatic devices involve the flow of gas or air, through connected pipe lines and pressure vessels.
•
Hence, the variables of pneumatic system are mass flow rate, qm
, and pressure P.•
The mass flow rate is a through variable and it is analogous to current. The pressure variable is across variable and is analogous to voltage.
•
The two basic elements of a pneumatic system are the resistance and capacitance.

Definition for Pneumatic Resistance
•
The gas flow resistance, R is defined as the rate of change in gas pressure difference for a change in gas flow rate.

Definition for pneumatic capacitance
•
Pneumatic capacitance is defined for a pressure vessel and depends on the type of expansion process involved. The capacitance of a pressure vessel may be defined as the ratio of change in gas stored for a change in gas pressure.

Pros and Cons of Pneumatic systems
•
Advantages –
The air or gas used is non inflammable and so it offers safety from fire hazards.
–
The air or gas has negligible viscosity, compared to high viscosity of hydraulic fluids.
–
No return pipelines are required and since air can be let out at the end of work cycle.
•
Disadvantage –
The response is slower than that of hydraulic systems because of the compressibility of the working fluid.

Pneumatic system
Pi
= air pressure of the source at steady state (newton/m2)P0
= air pressure in the vessel at steady state (newton/m2)∆
Pi
= small change in air pressure of the source from its steady state ∆
P0
= small change in air pressure of the vessel from its steady state

System dynamics
•
Rate of gas storage in vessel = rate of gas inflow
•
The mathematical model of a simple pneumatic system shown in figure is given by

Applying Laplace and rearranging the terms, we get

Summary
•
The transfer function of the system presents the same order as that of the level system with respect to the assumed dynamics and structure.
•
The common thread however will be with respect to the capacitance and resistance of the system
