Abstract
A hydraulic system comprising a long pipe, in which wave propagation takes splace, a hydraulic cylinder, loaded by a constant force at its end, and a switching valve, which connects the pipe entrance port periodically with the low- and high-pressure line, is investigated with respect to its feasibility to act as a switching converter. Energy efficiency and low fluctuation of the motion of the piston are the criteria with respect to which the role of several system parameters is evaluated.
