Best Answer

it is the property of the liquids. all the liquids are incompressible.

this is because the change in volume due to pressure is negligible for liquids.

in liquids the molecules are almost compact and hence no space for compression.

Air is incorporated in hydrualic system?

No. Air is compressible and fluid is incompressible. So if air is in the hydraulic lines, it will make the fluid act differently; if the fluid is pushing a piston it will be more spongy. Hydraulic fluid(an oil) is usually under high pressure, like 3,000 psi. This causes any small amount of air to go into the solution of the oil. Most Hydraulic Systems return fluid to a reservoir and the reservoir allows the air to "boil out" of solution and is released.
