hydraulics tears Flashcards
Pressure in a hydraulic system at all times is approximately equal to:
1) The minimum resistance to flow.
2) The pressure rating of the pump.
3)The relief valve pressure setting.
Incorrect Response
4) The maximum resistance to fluid flow.
- The min resistance to flow
power output formula with pump efficiency?
output power (kW)= Flow Rate (L/min) x Pressure (MPa) x 0.0167 / efficiency
Bernoulli’s principle basically states that as the speed of a fluid decreases its pressure would:
1) Decrease
2) Increase
3) Become kinetic
4) Stay the same
- Increase
A momentary rise in pressure is called:
1) Pilot pressure
2) Burst pressure
3) Surge pressure
4) Charge pressure
- surge pressure
The pressure compensator on the pump of a closed center system is the same as what to a open center system?
Unloader valve
Flow Control Valve
Reducing Valve
Relief Valve
Relief valve
Pressure plates in gear pumps:
1) Seal the sides of the gears against leakage
2) Support the gears against pressure
3) Are all bronze
4)Support the pump shafts
- seal the sides of the gears against leakage
External gear pumps have 2 external gears that grab the oil from the smaller inlet port and move the oil through the middle of the pump to the larger outlet ports.
True
False
False
What would an uncentered servo piston cause on a servo controlled variable displacement reversible pump?
1) It would cause the motor to drift
2) It would cause the machine to drift to one side when travelling
3) It would have no effect
4) Both 1 and 2
Both 1 and 2
Leakage oil in gear pumps is routed to the pump inlet
1) So the bushings do not burn up
2) So the gears are not side loaded
3) To protect the shaft seal
4)All the above
- to protect the shaft seal
Increasing the displacement of the motor will increase the torque output but reduce the motor speed
True False
True
Mechanical face seals are classified as:
1) Static
2) Rotary
3) Dynamic
4) Both A and C
- dynamic
Select the incorrect statement regarding vane type hydraulic motors
1)Vane motors are commonly bi-directional and reversible
2)Bi-directional vane motors require external drain ports
3)Vane motors have a minimum rotating RPM to ensure the vanes make contact with the cam ring
4)Balanced vane motors have 4 sets of transfer slots and have an elliptical cam ring
- vane motors have a minimum rotating RPM to ensure the vanes make contact with the cam ring
Select the correct swashplate position for a 2 speed pressure compensated axial piston motor with the key on and engine off in a machine.
Maximum swashplate position
Minimum swashplate position
minimum swashplate angle
What is the purpose of the piston relief valves mounted commonly on the end of dozer lift cylinders.
1)To limit the maximum pressure in the cylinder
2)To allow for greater cooling
3)To allow for quicker dropping of the blade
4)To allow for a quicker cycle time
- to allow for greater cooling
