Spreadsheet Accumulator Sizing for Hybrid Hydraulic Applications Using the Benedict-Webb-Rubin Equation of State

Abstract

A simple and effective method using optimization with the Benedict-Webb-Rubin equation of state is presented to size accumlator volumes in hyvrid hydraulic applications given the pre-charge, minimum and maximum operating pressures.
