The F-16 Fighting Falcon is equipped with three primary hydraulic pumps. Two of these are engine-driven pumps, while the third is an electric backup pump. These pumps are essential for operating various flight control surfaces, landing gear, and other hydraulic systems on the aircraft.

How are a hydraulic motor and hydraulic pump similar?

A hydraulic pump is a machine that uses hydraulic pressure to move fluid. A hydraulic motor is a machine that uses electricity to move fluid. Pumps have a higher output than motors due to their greater efficiency. Motors can only move a certain amount of fluid before they reach their limit. Pumps can continue moving fluid even after the motor has reached its limit. Pumps are easier to operate than motors. They don’t require any special skills or knowledge to use them. Motors, on the other hand, require some experience and knowledge to use them effectively.

Why centrifugal pumps are not used in Hydraulic system?

Centrifugal pumps are generally not used in hydraulic systems because they are designed for low-viscosity fluids and can struggle to generate the high pressures often required in hydraulic applications. Additionally, their performance can vary significantly with changes in flow rate, making them less suitable for the precise control needed in hydraulic systems. Instead, positive displacement pumps are preferred, as they provide consistent flow and pressure regardless of system demand.
