1208 作動流体の相変化を利用した高温環境用アクチュエータ 第3報 : 180℃環境下での駆動(次世代アクチュエータ,一般講演)

抄録

In high temperature environment, it is difficult to use functional materials. Because functional materials a decrease their functional performance or lose their function in those environments. On the other hands, actuations in high temperature are strongly desired with increasing demand. In our study, we have proposed a new principle of actuator for actuation in high temperature. It uses volume expanding caused with the phase transition of working fluid. This actuator uses no functional materials to drive and has a potential for the high temperature actuators. In this paper, we report on experimental results of the actuator driven in 180℃ temperature environment. From this experiment, we confirm capability of this actuator.
