This course is designed to familiarize participants with the principles of hydraulic system operation and with the components and operation of some typical hydraulic circuits. After completing this course, participants should be able to explain how force is transmitted through a liquid and how pressure and flow are related in a hydraulic system. They should also be able to describe the main components and basic operation of several types of hydraulic circuits.
Explain what a liquid is and how liquids differ from solids and gases.
Explain how force is transmitted through a liquid.
Define the following terms: "pressure," "head," "atmospheric pressure," "vacuum," "laminar flow," "turbulent flow," "velocity," and "flow rate."
Describe the relationship between pressure and flow in a hydraulic system.
List the main components of a basic hydraulic circuit and describe the function of each component.
Describe the basic operation of an automatic venting circuit.
Describe the basic operation of an accumulator circuit.
Describe the basic operation of a regenerative circuit.
