Properties of Fluids
Laws of Fluids
100
The upward force exerted on an object immersed in a fluid.
What is buoyancy
100
serves as a storage container for hydraulic fluid
What is reservoir
100
a key component in a pneumatic system and is used to pressurize air for transport through the system
What is compressor
100
The property of a fluid that can be found by dividing its mass by its volume.
What is density
100
The study of fluids goes back to what country
What is Greece?
200
If the object has a greater density that the fluid it is, it will:
What is sink
200
liquid used to circulate through hydraulic systems to transfer energy between components and to the load; the fluid provides cooling and transfer particles (contaminants) to the filter
What is hydraulic fluid
200
stainless steel or rubber connecting lines that connect system components and are used for fluid transfer
What are tubes/hoses
200
The rate of movement of fluid mass through a unit area.
What is mass flow rate?
200
the pressure in a stream of fluid is reduced as the speed of flow is increased.
What is Bernoulli's Principle
300
PSI is
What is pounds per square inch
300
Converts hydraulic energy to rotational energy to rotate a shaft
What is hydraulic motor actuator
300
A socket wrench power tool designed to deliver high torque output with minimal exertion by the user
What is an impact wrench/air wrench
300
The measure of the volume of liquid that moves in a certain amount of time.
What is volume flow rate
300
This principle states that the upward buoyant force that is exerted on a body immersed in a fluid, whether fully or partially submerged, is equal to the weight of the fluid that the body displaces and acts in the upward direction at the centre of mass of the displaced fluid.
What is Archimedes Principle
400
The total pressure measured above zero pressure (a perfect vaccuum)
What is absolute pressure
400
Converts the hydraulic pressure (energy) to mechanical energy to operate the load
What is an actuator
400
The difference between the atmospheric pressure and the absolute pressure.
What is vacuum pressure
400
The resistance of a fluid to flow
What is viscosity
400
The law that states that a pressure change occurring anywhere in a confined incompressible fluid is transmitted throughout the fluid such that the same change occurs everywhere.
What is Pascal's Law
500
If there is no pressure difference in a fluid system there is:
What is no movement
500
converts hydraulic energy to linear energy to operate piston rods
What is cylinder actuator
500
a type of tool used to drive nails into wood or some other kind of material. It is usually driven by compressed air (pneumatic),
What is a nail gun
500
weight per unit volume.
What is specific weight
500
the force required to move a sphere through a given viscous fluid at a low uniform velocity is directly proportional to the velocity and radius of the sphere.
What is Stoke's Law
