Hydraulic Systems • Transmit power from one point to another • Pascal’s Law • Pressure applied on a confined fluid is transmitted undiminished in all directions, and acts with equal force on equal areas, and at right angles to them
Pascal’s Law A 10 lb force is applied to a stopper with an area of one square inch Results in 10 lb force on every square inch of the container wall This bottle is filled with liquid that is non-compressible If the bottom has an area of 20 sq. in. and each square inch is pushed by a 10 lb of force, the entire bottom receives a 200 lb push
PASCAL’S LAW • Pressure = Force / Area Pressure = lb/in2 (psi) Area = in2 Force = pounds (lb)
100 lb 10 lb INPUT OUTPUT
Purpose of Pumps – To create flow and not pressure. Pressure is created when the flow is restricted O Psi
0 Psi 100 Psi 300 Psi 600 Psi
