Dynamic viscosity
dependent on the temperature and the pressure. Its unit is Pa · s. The old unit P (cP) is no longer allowed. Conversion: 1 cP = 1 mPa · s.
Jet contraction
Contraction A ‘1 of a flow rate when entering into a cross-section constriction. It arises when the wall of cross-section A 1 is removed ( Figure S 98 ). The jet contraction becomes smaller as the transition [...] transition from A 3 to A 1 becomes more round. The contraction coefficient ψ is between 0.6 for sharp edges, 0.7 to 0.8 in the case of a slight rounding, and up to 0.99 in the case of large radii.
Sound in fluid
been generated in the fluid. The propagation velocity for mineral oil in steel pipes is approx. 1,300 m/s.
Dynamic pressure principle for flow rate measurement
Bernoulli force of a flow rate on a body, e.g. a Prandtl tube ( Figure S 78 ). This is then used to measure the static pressure p 1 and the dynamic pressure p 2 and thereby calculate the flow rate from
Servo cylinder
terms of accuracy, servo cylinders ( Figure S 53 ) are used with two construction designs, which differ in terms of the bearing of the piston and piston rod: 1st cylinder with hydrostatic bearing and 2nd [...] low natural frequency (between 10 and 100 Hz) and very low damping, between 0.05 and 0.2 ( Figure S 54 ). As their stiffness also depends on the oil volume in the cylinder, they are not easy to handle
Buckling of rams
axial planar moment of inertia s = free buckling length (see Figure K 12) S K = safety factor (safety in terms of buckling) In addition to the basic scenario (scenario 1), another three buckling scenarios [...] scenarios are possible in this context (Figure K 12). Mounting scenario 2 applies in most cases, so that s = l. Particularly thorough calculations are required for horizontal cylinders or those tilted at a
Servo valve
between 1-stage and 2-stage or 3-stage servo valves. In one-stage servo valves, the electrical input stage (torque motor, moving coil) acts directly on the hydraulic valve control spool ( Figure S 49 ). [...] ), which adjusts the piston of the primary control stage in proportion to the input signal ( Figure S 50 ). A feedback spring is used as standard for the position feedback. For flows greater than 150 to [...] used, in which the third (main control) stage is pilot-controlled by a two-stage servo valve ( Figure S 51 ). This means that overall gains of up to a factor of 108 can be achieved. The servo valve and its
Accumulator drive
at power peaks. This can be used to select the flow rate Q 1 of the pump according to the average consumption V N during a working cycle t S: ( accumulator consumption diagram ). Multiple consumers can [...] with a shut-off device. These devices are normally grouped in an accumulator safety block ( Figure S 66 ).
SAE flange
In hydraulics, four-hole flanges with the connection pattern standardised in SAE j 518 ( Figure S 1 ) are the most commonly used flange connections . The American SAE norm specifies two pressure stages
Nominal mode of operation
describes the basic loading of an electrical machine. It is defined in international standard IEC 60034-1. It helps provide an initial assessment of whether a component (motor, hydraulic power pack) is suitable [...] suitable for a particular application. If no nominal mode of operation is indicated on the machine’s type plate, it is designed for continuous operation with a constant load. The other nominal modes of operation
