Volume reduction on pressure increase
reciprocal of the Kompressionsmodul K. The value of K can be assumed to be 1400 MPa for a hydraulic fluid. Calculate the volume reduction on pressure increase directly and easily in our hydraulic calculator
Pour point
point . The pour point cannot be used to assess the characteristics at low temperatures of pressure fluids based on vegetable oil. This is because time is a factor here, as well as temperature.
Gear pump
The gear pump is a machine for conveying fluids in accordance with the Positive displacement principle . In principle it consists of three components: a housing with inlet and outlet and two gear wheels
Laminar flow
(depending on the shape of the cross section), a laminar flow will apply. The individual elements of the fluid only move in the direction of the flow. As a result of viscosity, the local velocity across the cross
Redundancy
components are generally more vulnerable than fluid parts, the redundancy measures in fluid technology are focused on signal distribution . However, fluid systems may also have a redundant design. In doing
Wear protection capacity
Reflects the ability of a hydraulic fluid to reduce mechanical wear on moving parts of a hydraulic system which it comes into contact with. To improve the wear protection capacity, wear protection agents
Viscosity index (VI)
Characterises the Viscosity/temperature characteristic of a fluid. The smaller the change in viscosity with respect to temperature, the higher the VI (CETOP RP 100). The VI is mathematically calculated
Flow force
A flowing fluid exerts flow forces in the case of changes to the speed and/or direction, which are particularly noticeable on the control pistons (control spools) of directional valves . They increase
Bursting pressure
Static pressure at which a pipe or pipe connection is destroyed such that hydraulic fluid escapes (DIN 24 312). This definition should also be applied to the filter bursting pressure for the filter housing
Force multiplication ratio
Since the pressure in a fluid is the same at every point (laws of hydraulics), the force generated is solely dependent on the size of the area on which the pressure is acting. It is possible therefore
