True or False: Hydraulic motors are used to actuate the pump and generate flow
False
It converts hydrostatic energy into mechanical energy
Hydraulic motor
True or False: Hydraulic motor is a mechanical actuator that converts hydraulic pressure and flow into torque and angular displacement
True
True or False: Hydraulic motors are linear actuators
False
What is NOT a rotary actuator?
Cylinder
True or False: The sole purpose of a hydraulic motor is to generate flow and consequently pressure
False
Some applications were hydraulic motors could be used are
Drills, rolling mills, cement mixer
True or False: Cavitation is very common in motors but it can be prevented
True
True or False: Cushion valves are used to stop or minimize surge, shock and overload in hydraulic circuits
True
On a fluid power motor, the unit for speed is
RPM
True or False: Purpose of a pump is to create pressure in the system
False
True or False: Atmospheric pressure helps force the fluid into the pump
True
The two ports in a pump are
Pressure and vacuum
True or False: As the pump pressure increases, the volumetric output decreases
True
True or False: An external gear pump is one in which each gear is external to the other
True
