What is hydraulic power?

It refers to a transmission mode that uses liquid as working medium to transfer and control energy. In liquid transmission, according to the different forms of energy transmission, it can be divided into hydraulic transmission and hydraulic transmission.

Hydraulic transmission mainly uses liquid kinetic energy to convert energy, such as hydraulic coupling and hydraulic torque converter. Hydraulic transmission is a kind of transmission mode that uses liquid pressure energy to convert energy. Using hydraulic transmission technology in machinery can simplify the structure of the machine, reduce the weight of the machine, reduce the material consumption, reduce the manufacturing cost, reduce the labor intensity and improve the work efficiency and reliability.

Extended data

A complete hydraulic system consists of five parts, namely, energy device, executive device, control and adjustment device, auxiliary device and liquid medium. Hydraulic pressure has been widely used in industrial and civil industries because of its characteristics of large transmission power and easy transmission and configuration.

The function of the executive components of the hydraulic system (hydraulic cylinder and hydraulic motor) is to convert the pressure energy of liquid into mechanical energy, so as to obtain the required linear reciprocating motion or rotary motion. The function of the energy device (hydraulic pump) of the hydraulic system is to convert the mechanical energy of the prime mover into the pressure energy of the liquid.
