Abstract

The development of suspended armature valves is a trend in the future spacecraft propulsion systems. Compared to solenoid valves, the suspended armature valves have no friction surface, which eliminates the sliding interaction and the associated generations of particulate. Besides, the structure is more compact in axis direction for a suspended armature valve than a solenoid valve. On account of certain preferred characteristics, such as a long cycle-life, improvement in seal performance, and superior tolerance to the deformation and mechanical environment, the suspended armature valve mostly adopts S-shaped compression springs (S-spring). It is of significance to design a durable and reliable S-spring. The main objective of the present work is to introduce a theoretical methodology to design the S-spring. This dramatically reduces research time and controls associated cost.
