    Hydraulics transmit and control forces through pressurized fluids like oil. They are used widely in mechanical systems due to their ability to multiply force. A basic hydraulic system consists of pistons connected by pressurized fluid. Log splitters are a common example that use an engine to power an oil pump, sending pressurized oil to a hydraulic cylinder to multiply the force applied and split logs. Hydraulic systems have advantages like precise control of movement and the ability to start under heavy loads, though they can be messy if leaks occur. Hydraulic retract systems for aircraft use a similar design to air systems but replace compressed air with pressurized oil or fluid to securely lock landing gear in place.

    HYDRAULICS

    1. What is hydraulic technology?


    In the hydraulic technology we transmit and control forces and velocities by
    transmitting and controlling pressure and flow. In nearly every kind of technology we
    use hydraulic drive and control techniques. A few examples are:
     mechanical engineering
     car technology
     agriculture technology
     earthmoving and mining technology
     ship building technology
     offshore-technology
     aircraft and spacecraft technology

    The Basic Idea


    The basic idea behind any hydraulic system is very simple: Force that is applied at
    one point is transmitted to another point using an incompressible fluid. The fluid is
    almost always an oil of some sort. The force is almost always multiplied in the

    process. It is important that a hydraulic system contains no air bubbles,If there is an


    air bubble in the system, then the force applied to the first piston gets used
    compressing the air in the bubble rather than moving the second piston, which has a
    big effect on the efficiency of the system.

    • A simple hydraulic system consisting of :-


    1. Two pistons.
    2. Oil-filled pipe connectiong the two pistons.

    The neat thing about hydraulic systems is that it is very easy to add force
    multiplication (or division) to the system.
    trading force for distance is very common in mechanical systems. In a
    hydraulic system, all you do is change the size of one piston and cylinder
    relative to the other.

    log splitter
    there is something called log splitter , it Is The simplest hydraulic device that
    you find in common use today . It contains all of the basic components of a
    hydraulic machine:

    • An engine, normally a small four-stroke gasoline engine, provides the


    power for the system. The engine is attached to a hydraulic oil pump.
    • The hydraulic oil pump creates a stream of high-pressure oil, which
    runs to a valve.
    • The valve lets the operator actuate the hydraulic cylinder to split a log.
    There is also a tank to hold the hydraulic oil that feeds the pump and usually
    a filter to keep the oil clean.

    C. Valve
    D. Pump
    E. Engine

    Basic Principles con’t


    • By applying a downward force on the small piston, the
    jack can be made to lift a heavy mass on the large piston.
    • The liquid fills the entire volume between the two pistons,

    and because it is incompressible, some liquid must move


    into the large piston chamber when the small piston is
    pushed downward.
    1. Very high force despite small components (if pneumatics,
    bigger components are needed for high force, thus, incur
    high cost as well as wastage of compressed air)
    2. Very slow and linear movements (if pneumatics, too slow
    will create jerking on the cylinder)
    3. Very exact positioning (stops exactly on a point).
    Compared to pneumatics, there’s a tolerance and if a load
    is given, it will move a little.
    4. Start-up under heavy loads (Possible to start the motor &
    process a job with a load attached to it. This is because
    there is oil in the actuator though the pump is idling).
    5. Simplicity, safety, economy
    6. In general, fluid power systems use fewer moving
    parts than comparable mechanical or electrical systems.
    Thus, they are simpler to maintain and operate. This, in
    turn, maximizes safety, compactness and reliability

    Disadvantages of using Hydraulics


    1. Slow movement of actuators (Pneumatics are faster)
    2. Messy (Leakage may occur and if not bothered, the
    surrounding area could be messy. However, constant
    cleaning could avoid messy.)
    3. Dangerous!
    i. It produces extreme pressure and if there’s a leakage,
    oil will be forced out. Stopping the flow with bare hand would
    result in a punctuated wound.
    ii. While in process, oil became hot and flammable
    (though not easily happened). Therefore, it is advisable to
    control the temperature by limiting it (turning off the machine
    if the limit is exceeded).

    Fluids: Liquids and Gases


    Liquids – refer to both gases and liquids.
    - is a fluid that, for a given mass, will have a definite volume
    independent of the shape of its container.
    - A free surface is also formed in the case of a body of water,
    such as a lake.
    Gases – fluids that are readily compressible. In addition,
    their volume will vary to fill the vessel containing
    them.
    - the gas molecules always fill the entire vessel.

    HYDRAULIC

    Commercially available hydraulic retract systems have only been available for a
    fairly short period of time and are still a rarity at flying fields. However, they're
    likely to become increasingly popular due to the ever-growing number of larger
    models (particularly jets) with high wing loadings and consequent increased
    landing speeds / loads. Eurokit is currently the only manufacturer offering a
    wide range of hydraulic retracts to suit a variety of models, whilst some kit
    manufacturers offer tailor-made retracts to suit specific models.
    A typical hydraulic system
    In general, hydraulic retract units and operating valves appear very similar to
    those supplied with air up / air down units, the only real difference being the
    incorporation of seals that are compatible with the oil / fluid being used in the
    system. The air tank and fill valve are done away with, and in their place are an
    oil tank, electronic control unit (ECU), hydraulic pump and dedicated battery
    pack. Linking of the various items is carried out much like an air system, with
    two hydraulic lines running to each retract unit. Oil is introduced to the system
    by filling the tank, then running the pump to distribute it, bleeding any air from
    the lines. Once most of the air has been removed, the bit remaining tends to be
    forced back into the oil tank as the system is cycled.
    The operating method is fairly simple in that the control valve and ECU are
    simultaneously activated via the retract channel, at which the pump forces fluid
    down the lines into the retract unit rams, operating the gear. Models with wing-
    mounted main undercarriage units are accommodated by the use of self-sealing,
    two-piece valves in the lines where the wing panels separate; when these valves
    are parted theres no oil loss, and air is not introduced into the system.
    There are a number of advantages with hydraulic systems, including the ability
    to control very accurately the speed by either changing the input voltage to the
    pump or by adjustment of the electronic control unit. Another positive is the
    extremely secure up /down lock (due to the incompressible nature of oil), and
    reduced leakage, given the much greater viscosity of oil over air. My relatively
    limited experience of hydraulic retracts suggests that they're generally more
    reliable than air systems, as long as they're correctly installed. Of course, you
    don't get all this accuracy and reliability for nothing, and hydraulic retracts tend
    to be more expensive, given the requirement for a high precision pump, ECU
    etc. They're also heavier due to the weight of oil carried and additional
    components
