Trouble develops in a hydraulic system when the fluid becomes contaminated as the result of?
any action that places foreign matter in the fluid
By what ways may air enter into a hydraulic system?
through improper maintenance, past leaky seals in gas-pressurized accumulators, past actuator piston rod seals
True or False. Water contamination of a hydraulic system is NOT a major concern since its presence aids in reducing the flammability of the fluid.
False
Chemical contamination of hydraulic liquid by oxidation is indicated when the liquid contains what materials?
sludge, asphaitine particles, or organic acids
Compatibility of hydraulic liquid with the seals and hoses in a system prevents what problems from occuring?
chemical reaction between the liquid acid the seal or hose material and consequent breakdown of these parts
Lint, rust, sludge, sand particles. All of these contaminants are abrasive EXCEPT?
sludge
True or False. Whenever drained or used hydraulic fluid is returned to a system, straining is necessary only if the cleanliness of the storage container is questionable.
False
What agents should parts of a hydraulic component be cleaned with prior to being assembled?
an approved dry-cleaning solvent
What agents, if combined with minute amounts of water found in operating hydraulic systems, does NOT change into hydrochloric acid?
an approved dry-cleaning solvent
When you analyze operating hydraulic fluids, changes in what areas may be of particular interest to you?
chemical properties, physical properties, and particulate contamination
From what locations can fluid samples be taken?
pipe drains after sufficient fluid has drained
What is the function of a hydraulic pump?
to provide flow to the hydraulic system
If a hydraulic pump is located below the reservoir, fluid is supplied to its inlet port by what force?
gravity
the ratings of most hydraulic pumps are determined by their?
volumetric output at a given pressure
Pump performance can be expressed in what terms?
gallons per minute, or cubic inches per revolution
True or False. In contrast to a nonpositive-displacement pump that can operate with its discharge outlet completely restricted, a positive-displacement pump cannot do so and must be used with a pressure regulator.
true
True or False. Slippage is the term given to the amount of fluid that can return from the discharge side to the suction side af a rotary pump through the space or clearances between the stationary and moving parts.
True
What is generally the basis for rotary pump classification?
type of rotating element
What type of gears is illustrated in figure 4-1 of your textbook?
spur
What type of gear-type rotary pumps discharges the smoothest fluid flow?
helical
Why are helical gear pumps classified as external gear pumps?
Both sets of teeth project outward from the center of the gears
True or False. Screw pump performance is based on the fluid's viscosity.
True
Hydraulic hand pumps are used in some aircraft hydraulic systems to provide a source of hydraulic power for what purposes?
emergencies, testing certain subsystems during preventive maintenance, and determining the causes of malfunctions in certain subsystems
On a hydraulic hand pump why is liquid discharged through the outlet port when the piston is moved to the right?
check valve opens, causing the liquid confined in the inlet chamber to flow to the smaller outlet chamber and out the outlet port
True or False. Pulsations fo fluid flow from a radial-piston pump are much greater if the pump has an even number of pistons than if it has an odd number.
True
What component of a radial-piston pump is connected to the cylinder block?
Drive shaft
The output of the axial-piston pump is determined by what factors?
Angle given to the tilting plane
What component of a Stratopower pump holds the pistons in constant contact with the mechanical drive mechanism
wobble plate
Automatic variation of the volume output of a variable-displacement Stratopower pump is controlled by what factors?
The pressure in the hydraulic system
During nonflow operation of a variable-displacement Stratopower pump, what provides its lubrication?
bypass system
You must consider what factors when selecting the types of fluied lines for a particular fluid power system?
the required pressure of the system, the type of fluid medium, and the location of the system
You must give primary consideration to all but what factor in selecting the lines for a particular fluid power system?
the material's outside diameter
Replacement of a piece of tubing with one having a smaller inside diameter will result in what condition?
fluid heating, turbulent fluid flow, and system power loss
True or False. As the pipe schedule size increases, the ID decreases, the wall thickness increases, and the OD remains the same
True
The nominal size of pipe whose outside diameter is 1.900 inches is?
1 1/2
What is the schedule 40 wall thickness of pipe with a nominal pipe size of 2 inches?
0.154 in
What is the size of No. 4 rigid tubing, and where is the measurement taken?
1/4 inch, outside diameter
True or False. The relative bursting pressure for various sies of tubing made of the same meterial is higher for small tubing than for larger tubing of the same wall thickness.
True
What metals may be used to provide a strong, inexpensive pipe or tubing capabe of withstanding high pressures and temperatures?
steel
What basic requirements must be considered in designing the lines and connectors of a fluid power system?
inside surfaces that do not create turbulent fluid flow, sizes sufficient to deliver adequate quantities of fluid to all components, and strength to withstand pressure surges that exceed the system's working pressure
True or false. Bends in piping serve to absorb vibration and to compensate for thermal expansion and contraction.
True
The determining factor for the radius of the bend to be made in a pipe is the pipe's?
inside diameter
True or False. Coarse-toothed hacksaw blades are preffered for cutting tubing because they cut faster and are less liable to choke up with the chips.
False
What procedures should you follow when cutting a tube with a tube cutter?
apply continual light pressure to the cutting wheel, remove all burrs on the inside and outside of the tube, and remove all roreign particles from the tube.
What statement is NOT correct for cutting tubing with a hacksaw
when you clamp the tubing in a vice, tighten the vice until the tubing is just starting to hold without collapsing
What parts of the hand tube bender are used to obtain the correct bend radius and the desired bend angle on tubing?
the radius block and the slide bar
True or False. When flaring a tube the flare must be large enough to seat properly against the fitting.
