A distinction is made between laminar and turbulent flow. In the case of laminar flow, the hydraulic fluid moves through the pipe in ordered cylindrical…
The simplest method of measuring flow rate is with a measuring container and a stop watch. However, turbine meters are recommended for continuous measurements. The…
The temperature of hydraulic fluid in hydraulic installations can either be measured using simple measuring devices (thermometers) or else by means of a measuring device…
To measure pressures in the lines or at the inputs and outputs of components, a pressure gauge is installed in the line at the appropriate…
Flow rate is the term used to describe the volume of liquid flowing through a pipe in a specific period of time. For example, approximately…
The hydrostatic pressure p1 exerts a force F1 on the area A1 which is transferred via the piston rod onto the small piston. Thus, the…
If a load F2 is to be lifted a distance S2 in line with the principle described above, the piston P1 must displace a specific…
A vehicle is to be lifted by a hydraulic jack. The mass m amounts to 1500 kg. What force FT1T is required at the piston?
The same pressure applies at every point in a closed system. For this reason, the shape of the container has no significance. Where a container…
If a force FT1T acts via an area AT1T on an enclosed liquid, a pressure p is produced which extends throughout the whole of the…
