HYDRAULIC

Hydraulic?????.
What do we mean by hydraulic?
Hydraulic systems are used in modern production and manufacturing installation.
By hydraulic, it means the generation of forces and motion using hydraulic fluid. The hydraulic fluids represent the medium for power transmission. 2

HYDRAULICS SYSTEM
ADVANTAGES DISADVANTAGES
Transmission of large Sensitivity to dirt forces using small Danger result from component excessive pressures Precise position Temperature dependence Start-up under heavy load (change in viscosity) Smooth operation

APPLICATIONS OF HYDRAULICS SYSTEM


Construction machinery Excavator Elevating platforms Lifting & conveying devices Agricultural machinery Injection moulding Presses machine

Basic Hydraulic Principles


Pressure due to external forces

If a force acts on an enclosed liquid, a pressure P is produced which extends throughout the whole of the liquid. The same pressure applies at every point of the closed system.

PASCALS LAW
The property of a liquid to transmit pressure equally throughout itself is known as Pascals Law ,in honor of Blaise Pascal who discovered it. The mathematical expression which describes Pascals Law is the same as that used to describe any pressure:

F orce(N) (Pa) = Area(m )

P = Pressure, F = Force and A = Area

Variations of Pascals Law


Pressure = Force divided by area Force = Pressure times area Area = Force divided by pressure

The hydraulic system is better and EFFICIENT than the pneumatic system in HEAVY EQUIPMENT construction because the hydraulic system used fluid as a medium.
