FP 2701 - Basic Fluid Power3 lecture hours 0 lab hours 3 credits
This course considers fluid power, its advantages and limitations, the prevailing industrial standards, and ANSI/ISO graphic symbols used for circuit representation. Various types of loads are studied and related to the required hydraulic performance. Positive displacement pumps, motors, and actuators are described and steady state sizing relationships are developed relating pressure and flow rate. Also valves for pressure, directional, and flow control are studied individually and as employed in specific hydraulic circuits. Finally, the subject of overall circuit design is treated. Hydrostatic transmissions, cavitation, accumulators, pump controls for energy conservation, hydraulic fluids and filtration are also covered. (prereq: PH 113 )
