Pressure head
Vertical height h in m of a column of fluid that, provided the density of the fluid is known, serves as a measure of the pressure that this column applies over the area of its base. The pressure head
Speed control circuit
Control circuit that has the task of adapting the rotation speed (e.g. of a hydraulic motor) as a controlled variable as accurately as possible to a setpoint. This action can be undertaken by changing
Differential pressure measurement
To measure the differential pressure Δp the two pressures p 1 and p 2 must be separated from each other by diaphragms that are connected by a plunger. The deflection of the two diaphragms then corresp
Sealing element
Replaceable functional element in a sealing system.
Data rate
Measure in kbit/s for the amount of data transmitted (and as a consequence for the transmission speed) between two computers or a computer and a peripheral. baud
Code translator
Converts the digital input signal in one code into a digital output signal with a different code (DIN 19 226).
Bond graphs
Graphic representation of dynamic systems using the electric-hydraulic analogy (Figure B 23) . It is used for simulations on personal computers in the time domain using the program TUTSIM and to deter
Output unit
Function unit within a digital computer system with which the system outputs data - e.g. calculated results - to the exterior (EDIN 44 300 Part 5).
Parallel processing
Operating mode whereby several functional units process separate orders or parts of the same order in such a way that the processes involved run in parallel (DIN 4400).
