Hydraulics Task 3 – P3 Pneumatics and Hydraulic Systems Modern aircraft controls and the braking systems use hydraulic pressure as a means of control. This is because the hydraulic system uses fluid‚ and hydraulic fluid cannot be compressed. Pneumatic systems which use a gas instead of a fluid however can be compressed and this means that the hydraulic system is more effective in it’s function. Because it uses fluid‚ the effect of the hydraulic system is therefore more precise and can work to

Introduction For many centuries‚ countries including the United States have been searching for new ways to obtain an alternate source of energy. During the 1940’s‚ Hydraulic fracking (hydrofracking) or horizontal well drilling became the method of choice for obtaining natural gas. According to the 2010‚ report Fueling North America’s Energy

5 TURBINES 5.1 Introduction Hydraulic turbines are the machines which use the energy of water and convert it to mechanical energy. The mechanical energy developed by a turbine is used in running an electric generator which is directly coupled to the shaft of the turbine. The electric generator thus develops electric power‚ which is known as hydro-electric power. 5.2 Elements of Hydraulic Power Plants Fig.5.1 General Layout of a Hydraulic Power Plant 31 Fig.5.1 shows

Fluid Mechanics. Fluid mechanics studies the physics of gases and liquids. Hydraulics is defined as: "a branch of science that deals with practical applications of liquid in motion." Merriam-Webster’s Medical Dictionary‚ via www.dictionary.com The science started over thousands of years ago with Aristotle (384-322 B.C.) and Archimedes (287-212 B.C.). Many European scientists also contributed to hydraulics‚ including da Vinci‚ Mariotte and Boyle. The scientist who discovered the
