Hydraulics

Due to its immense power, hydraulics are used for operating various machinery, vehicles, aircraft, ships and equipment. The data and engineering revolving around hydraulics is so vast, its hard to comprehend.

What is hydraulic head in reservoir engineering?

Hydraulic head is related to the amount of energy present in a hydraulic system. Hydraulic head is composed of three components: elevation head, pressure head, and velocity head. As water loses one component of its hydraulic head, the other components increase. For example: water that falls 10 feet loses 10 feet of elevation head and gains 10 feet of velocity head. The only way a hydraulic system can lose hydraulic head is through head loss due to friction.

What is mean by saturated hydraulic conductivity?

Saturated hydraulic conductivity is a quantitative measure of a saturated soil's ability to transmit water when subjected to a hydraulic gradient. It can be thought of as the ease with which pores of a saturated soil permit water movement.

How do you request change of interview date?

If you're going to send them an email requesting another date for the interview, you can send the following:

Dear Sir,

I am extremely grateful for offering me an interview, but I wonder if it would be possible to change the interview date, as ..............................(Mention the reason which makes you unable to attend on the scheduled date)

I would be very pleased if you could change the date and give me an opportunity to be interviewed.

Thank you!

Sincerely yours,

What specifically creates hydraulic flow?

Hydraulic literally means 'moving fluid'. A volume of fluid that is displaced by another given volume, be it solid or fluid, has a flow of that volume of displacement measured in volume / time. For example: litres / minute. A hydraulic pump may provide a flow of 10 litres per minute. This flow may be turbulent or laminar. Do not confuse this with pressure.

Why are hydraulic machines useful in heavy lifting and construction industries?

Hydraulic machines are useful in construction as they are force magnifiers. This means that a small input force can be made into a large input force. ^_^

Nas value of oil?

The value of Gas Turbine Oil should be 6.

Why do hydraulic systems usually have large mechanical advantages?

Two interconnected hydraulic cylinders can seen as a lever, the smaller cylinder is the end of the lever further away from the fulcrum (where you will apply the force), the larger piston is the load end. Add to that another lever (a brake pedal), you again increase your mechanical advantage. So, at least one of the reasons why hydraulic systems have large mechanical advantages is they combine multiple simple machine concepts to multiply force and torque.

How hydraulic rock breaker works?

Hydraulic rock breakers are powerful percussion hammers. The rock breaker works on the principal of hydraulics, where putting pressure on one part of a fluid transfers pressure to all areas of the fluid, allowing a multiplication of force.

Why was Ancient Egypt an example of a hydraulic empire?

Yes. He developed hydraulic civilization maintains control over its population by means of controlling the supply of water. Most of the first civilizations in history such as ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, China, Sri Lanka, pre-Columbian Mexico and Peru are believed to been among the first hydraulic empires

Are Dam hydraulic or pneumatic?

It depends on the dam. Some dams are hydraulic and some are pneumatic.

Short answer: Both

How do you fix a hydraulic shock?

Back in the 1940's and earlier you could rebuild the hydraulic shocks in many vehicles but since then they cannot be rebuilt, just replace with a new one.

What is an F15 Hydraulic system increment drop check?

There are three separate hydraulic systems on the f 15 and each has a stationary pointer with a rotaiting dial, thus indicating fluid level. An increment dropcheck is performed on aircraft launch after both engines are running. The colors indicating fluid level are red(low) green(full) and white(over). after both engines are running one or more systems indicating dials drops more than seven for the PC systems or nine for the utility system.that system failed meaning there is not enough fliud in the reservoir

How do you design hand screw press?

Find a design pattern online for a hand screw press and follow it or alter it as needed to fit your needs.

Can you mix hydraulic oil in engine oil in a Cat C-15?

you can not mix hydraulic oil in engine oil because if you do a fire will occure and then you will blow up in a million pieces.

Indian standard for pipe line color code?

what is the color code for all the pipeline used in standard hotel industry

Control diagrame of a capacitor bank and why you use capacitor banks?

---- Capacitor banks used to improve power factor(lagging) of a circuit:: This is necessary since it causes saving in power and electricity bill in following ways: 1) As p.f rises, circuit currnt decreases and hence I2R losses reduce 2) Var consumption reduces There is no tool provided here to draw the ckt diagram:: U take on PFC(power factor correction bus), then connect switch fuse, then HRC fuse, then Contactor, then overload relay and finally the capacitor bank

What is the Three Reservoir Problem?

This is a classic problem in hydraulic engineering. Three reservoirs are connected by pipes. All the reservoirs have surfaces at different elevations.

Given the height each reservoir and pressure loss in each leg of the pipe network, liquid will either flow into or out of each reservoir.

If you apply the Bernoulli equation from the surface of each reservoir to the pipe junction, you end up with three nonlinear equations in four unknowns (the flowrates in each leg of the piping network and the total pressure head at the junction). An additional equation is supplied by applying the Continuity Law at the pipe junction (i.e. the sum of all flowrates at the junction is zero if there is no outflow).

This now gives four equations in four unknowns; no analytical solution is possible. You can solve the equations iteratively, however, using a tool like Excel. See the spreadsheet in the related link for an example

What are the applications of multilevel inverters?

The various applications of multilevel inverters are

1. Motor Drives

2.Active Filters

3.Power conditioning

How do you replace seals on a 2 ton hydraulic jack?

If it is made in China, just throw it away and buy a new one. If it is a quality jack made by a name brand, contact the company (via e-mail or phone) and order a rebuilt kit. The kit will come with instructions, it is a simple task.

What type hydraulic oil does a Case 530 tractor use?

Back when that tractor was made, they probably said to use an SAE 10 or similar hydraulic oil. Now days, the Universal Hydraulic Oils that are available meet and exceed the specs on those older type oils. You should be able to get Universal Hydraulic Oil from about any oil distributor or farm supply store.

How does turbulence affect fluid-flow in a hydraulic line?

due to turbulance the flow of the fluid decreases. the fluid particles traces abnormal path and stops the movement of other particles also. this occur due to some sudden blocking which converts laminar flow into turbulant flow.

What is the difference between hydraulic motors and pumps?

A hydraulic pump uses an external mechanical force to pressurize the hydraulic fluid. A hydraulic motor uses the pressurized hydraulic fluid to apply a mechanical force an external machine.

See the difference between a pump and a motor.
