Describe the difference between hydrodynamic and hydrostatic systems; give examples.
|
Hydrodynamic uses the flow energy of a fluid to accomplish work, i.e torque converter.
A hydrostatic system uses the pressure of a fluid to acccomplish work: i.e a lift cylinder. |
|
Rules by which pressurized fluid is governed.
|
- Pressure is a result of resistance to flow
- Pressure of a confined liquid is always in proportion to applied force. - When restriction is removed, pressure drops to 0. |
