Kv value (of valves)
Flow in m3/h of water at +5 to +30°C passing through a device (valve) in a given direction based on a pressure drop of 1 bar and an upstream pressure of 6 bar. The practical benefits of the Kv value (of
Circular sealing gap
diameter h = gap or half the diameter tolerance. With an eccentric circular sealing gap , it is case of: ( Figure K 37 b ) If the piston is positioned to one side, the leakage flow will increase 2.5 times
Natural frequency of a hydraulic cylinder
As a synchronizing cylinder (Figure K 5) with oil spring stiffness. The oil spring stiffness for cylinder side A and cylinder side B are arranged in parallel and add up to the total oil spring stiffness [...] ÖL. The volumes in the displacement chambers are as follows: V A = V AL + A · x and V B = V BL + A (h max — x) where V AL, V BL = oil volume in the pipes between valve and cylinder. Assuming the piston
Energy content of hydraulic fluid
pressure + geodetic pressure. This equation yields the related energy element as The last term ρ · g · h can generally be ignored in hydraulics, as it is mostly only a few tenths of a bar. The kinetic energy [...] . Example: ΔV k = 1.0 L; p = 300 bar; compression energy: 15 · 103 Nm. If this 1 L flows away in 0.5 s, a power of approx. 30 kW is released.
