<p>A temperature compensating system (10) for a closed system, such as damping system (12), in which fluid is subject to temperature increases and acocmpanying volume increases. The temperature compensation system provides a compressible member (40) within a temperature compensation volume, and a barrier (46) restricting the entry of fluid to the volume. When the fluid volume increases as a result of temperature increases, fluid seeps past the barrier into the temperature compensation volume to compress the compressible member and thus increase the total volume available to the fluid in the closed system. The increased volume reduces pressure buildup that would otherwise occur, and thereby tends to maintain a steady pressure within the closed system. Dynamic or high speed fluid flows are restricted by the barrier or other restriction, inhibiting such flows from passing into the volume. The barrier or other restriction thus tends to prevent the temperature compensating system from interfering with normal functioning of the system while maintaining a steady internal pressure therein.</p> |
