Pub.ES-100-2 BASIC HYDRAULICSANDCOMPONENTS BASIC HYDRAULICS AND COMPONENTS OIL HYDRAULIC EQUIPMENT ■ Overseas Business Department Hamamatsucho Seiwa Bldg., 4-8, Shiba-Daimon 1-Chome, Minato-ku, Tokyo 105-0012 JAPAN TEL. +81-3-3432-2110 FAX. +81-3-3436-2344 Preface This book provides an introduction to hydraulics for those unfamiliar with hydraulic systems and components, such as new users, novice salespeople, and fresh recruits of hydraulics suppliers. To assist those people to learn hydraulics, this book offers the explanations in a simple way with illustrations, focusing on actual hydraulic applications. The first edition of the book was issued in 1986, and the last edition (Pub. JS-100-1A) was revised in 1995. In the ten years that have passed since then, this book has become partly out-of-date. As hydraulic technologies have advanced in recent years, SI units have become standard in the industrial world, and electro-hydraulic control systems and mechatronics equipment are commercially available. Considering these current circumstances, this book has been wholly revised to include SI units, modify descriptions, and change examples of hydraulic equipment. Conventional hydraulic devices are, however, still used in many hydraulic drive applications and are valuable in providing basic knowledge of hydraulics. Therefore, this edition follows the preceding edition in its general outline and key text. This book principally refers hydraulic products of Yuken Kogyo Co., Ltd. as example, but does mention some products of other companies, with their consent, for reference to equipment that should be understood. We acknowledge courtesy from those companies who have given us support for this textbook. This edition was originally designed for the Japanese learners and is translated into English, hoping to help assist future engineers of hydraulics in the international community. Some of the descriptions and figures in Chapters 11, 14, and 15 are extracted from “Oil-Hydraulics - Handbook (Revised in 2001)”issued by the Japan Fluid Power Association (JFPA). We express our deep appreciation to the Association. ・Units For US units, use the following conversion formula:- 1 [MPa] ＝ 145.04 [psi] 1 [cm3/rev] ＝ 6.102×10-2[cu.in/rev] 1 [L/min] ＝ 0.2642 [U.S.GPM] 1 [kg] ＝ 2.205 [lbs.] 1 [kW] ＝ 1.360 [HP] 1 [m] ＝ 39.37 [in] 1 [N] ＝ 0.2248 [lbf] °F＝9/5 ℃＋32 BASIC HYDRAULICS AND COMPONENTS TABLE of CONTENTS PREFACE 1．WORLD OF HYDRAULICS…………………………………………………………………………… 1 1-1 Introduction 1-2 Basis of Hydraulics 2．HYDRAULIC PUMPS ………………………………………………………………………………… 5 2-1 Comparison of the Pumps 2-2 Piston Pumps 2-3 Vane Pumps 2-4 Gear Pumps 2-5 Screw Pumps 2-6 Reciprocal Pumps 3．PRESSURE CONTROL VALVES …………………………………………………………………… 16 3-1 Relief Valves 3-2 Sequence Valves 3-3 Counterbalance Valves 3-4 Unloading Relief Valves 3-5 Pressure Reducing Valves/Pressure Reducing and Check Valves 3-6 Brake Valves 3-7 Balancing Valves (Pressure Reducing and Relieving Valves) 3-8 Pressure Switches 4．DIRECTIONAL CONTROL VALVES ……………………………………………………………… 22 4-1 Classification of Directional Control Valves 4-2 Structure and Characteristics of Directional Valves 4-2-1 Solenoid Operated Directional Valves 4-2-2 Solenoid Controlled Pilot Operated Directional Valves 4-2-3 Poppet Type Solenoid Controlled Pilot Operated Directional Control Valves 4-2-4 Shut-off Type Solenoid Operated Directional Valves (Poppet Type Two-Way Solenoid Operated Directional Valves) 4-2-5 Pilot Operated Directional Valves 4-2-6 Manually Operated Directional Valves 4-2-7 Check Valves 4-2-8 Pilot Operated Check Valves 4-2-9 Multiple Control Valves 5．FLOW CONTROL VALVES…………………………………………………………………………… 32 5-1 Restrictors/One Way Restrictors 5-2 Flow Control Valves/Flow Control and Check Valves 5-3 Deceleration Valves/Deceleration and Check Valves 5-4 Feed Control Valves 5-5 Pilot Operated Flow Control and Check Valves 6．MODULAR VALVES …………………………………………………………………………………… 37 7．LOGIC VALVES ………………………………………………………………………………………… 38 8．PROPORTIONAL ELECTRO-HYDRAULIC CONTROL VALVES …………………………… 41 8-1 Proportional Electro-Hydraulic Pilot Relief Valves 8-2 Proportional Electro-Hydraulic Relief Valves 8-3 Proportional Electro-Hydraulic Relieving and Reducing Valves 8-4 Proportional Electro-Hydraulic Flow Control (and Check) Valves ■ TABLE of CONTENTS 8-5 Proportional Electro-Hydraulic Flow Control and Relief Valves 8-6 Proportional Electro-Hydraulic Directional and Flow Control Valves 8-7 Power Amplifiers For Proportional Electro-Hydraulic Control Valves 8-8 Setting Adjusters 8-9 Circuit Example of Proportional Electro-Hydraulic Control Valves 8-10 Hybrid Proportional Electro-Hydraulic Control Valves 9．SERVOMECHANISM & SERVO VALVES………………………………………………………… 49 9-1 Servomechanism (Tracking Mechanism) 9-2 Servo Valve Selection 9-3 Electro-Hydraulic Two-Stage Servo Valves 9-4 Direct Drive Servo Valves 9-5 Servo Amplifiers 9-6 Sensors 9-7 Hydraulic Power Source 9-8 Servo Systems with Pump Speed Control 9-9 Related Terms 10．ACTUATORS…………………………………………………………………………………………… 58 10-1 Hydraulic Cylinders 10-2 Hydraulic Motors 10-3 Oscillating Motors 11．HYDRAULIC ACCESSORIES ……………………………………………………………………… 63 11-1 Filters 11-2 Accumulators 11-3 Heat Exchangers 11-4 Measuring Instruments 11-5 Valves 11-6 Others 12．HYDRAULIC UNITS ………………………………………………………………………………… 71 12-1 Reservoirs 12-2 Others 13．TROUBLESHOOTING FOR HYDRAULIC EQUIPMENT …………………………………… 73 14．HYDRAULIC FLUIDS ………………………………………………………………………………… 75 14-1 Selection 14-2 Petroleum-Based Fluid 14-3 Viscosity 14-4 Contamination Control 14-5 Application Limit 14-6 Contamination Measurement Instruments 14-7 Fire Resistance Fluid 14-8 Biodegradable Fluid 15．HYDRAULIC CIRCUITS……………………………………………………………………………… 82 15-1 Unload Circuits 15-2 Pressure Control Circuits 15-3 Speed Control Circuits 15-4 Filter Circuits 15-5 Synchronizing Circuits 15-6 Intensifying Circuits 15-7 Brake Circuits 15-8 Closed Circuits Appendix: Main Formulas …………………………………………………………………………………… 92 TABLE of CONTENTS ■ “Hydraulics”is one of drive systems to control machinery and eq “Hydraulics”is 1 safety. required at to be hydraulics”is environmentally friendly;“water history of some typical water and oil hydraulics.

Stefanowskiego 1/15, 90-924 Lodz, Poland; [email protected] (A.K.); [email protected] (Ł.S.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: The article is an overview of various materials used in power hydraulics for basic hydraulic actuators components such as cylinders, cylinder caps, pistons, piston rods, glands, and sealing systems. The aim of this review is to systematize the state of the art in the field of materials and surface modification methods used in the production of actuators. The paper discusses the requirements for the elements of actuators and analyzes the existing literature in terms of appearing failures and damages. The most frequently applied materials used in power hydraulics are described, and various surface modifications of the discussed elements, which are aimed at improving the operating parameters of actuators, are presented. The most frequently used materials for actuators elements are iron alloys. However, due to rising ecological requirements, there is a tendency to looking for modern replacements to obtain the same or even better mechanical or tribological parameters. Sealing systems are manufactured mainly from thermoplastic or elastomeric polymers, which are characterized by Citation: Skowro´nska,J.; Kosucki, low friction and ensure the best possible interaction of seals with the cooperating element.

ISBN 90 6191 898 7 The role of hydraulic modeling in development of innovative spillway concepts Philip H.Burgi Bureau of Reclamation, Denver, Colo., USA ABSTRACT: The use of hydraulic models to develop and verify the intricate design of waterways to pass flood flows has been closely associated with the development of hydraulic structures over the past 50 years. Since the mid-30's, the Bureau of Reclamation has used laboratory models to develop spillways for large dams such as Hoover, Grand Coulee, Glen Canyon, Yellowtail, and Morrow Point Dams. Documented reports and generalized design criteria have been developed to summarize the results of these investigations. In recent years, Reclamation has developed various innovative spillway concepts which have resulted in cost effective designs for hydraulic structures. This paper will summarize recent laboratory investigations for labyrinth, stepped, and fuse plug spillway concepts as well as retrofit concepts using aerators on spillways and downstream slope protection systems for overtopping low-head embankments. INTRODUCTION Physical model studies are used to investigate the anticipated performance of hydraulic structures.

    Hydraulics Manual Glossary G - 3

    Glossary G - 1 GLOSSARY OF HIGHWAY-RELATED DRAINAGE TERMS (Reprinted from the 1999 edition of the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials Model Drainage Manual) G.1 Introduction This Glossary is divided into three parts: · Introduction, · Glossary, and · References. It is not intended that all the terms in this Glossary be rigorously accurate or complete. Realistically, this is impossible. Depending on the circumstance, a particular term may have several meanings; this can never change. The primary purpose of this Glossary is to define the terms found in the Highway Drainage Guidelines and Model Drainage Manual in a manner that makes them easier to interpret and understand. A lesser purpose is to provide a compendium of terms that will be useful for both the novice as well as the more experienced hydraulics engineer. This Glossary may also help those who are unfamiliar with highway drainage design to become more understanding and appreciative of this complex science as well as facilitate communication between the highway hydraulics engineer and others. Where readily available, the source of a definition has been referenced. For clarity or format purposes, cited definitions may have some additional verbiage contained in double brackets [ ]. Conversely, three “dots” (...) are used to indicate where some parts of a cited definition were eliminated. Also, as might be expected, different sources were found to use different hyphenation and terminology practices for the same words. Insignificant changes in this regard were made to some cited references and elsewhere to gain uniformity for the terms contained in this Glossary: as an example, “groundwater” vice “ground-water” or “ground water,” and “cross section area” vice “cross-sectional area.” Cited definitions were taken primarily from two sources: W.B.

    Memo to Designers 16-1A • December 2017 LRFD SupersedesSupersedes MemoMemo toto DesignersDesigners 1-231-23 DatedDated OctoberOctober 20032003 Attachment 3 Glossary Of Terminology For Hydraulics & Scour Definitions (refer to AASHTO LRFD-BDS-CA Section 2.2) Common terminology has been defined below for easy reference. Abutment Scour Abutment scour is essentially a form of scour at a short contraction. Accordingly, scour is closely influenced by flow distribution through the short contraction and by turbulence generated and dispersed in the form of eddies and vortices, by flow entering the short contraction. Aggradation General and progressive buildup (long term) of the longitudinal profile of a channel bed due to sediment deposition. Backwater The increase in water surface elevation relative to its elevation occurring under natural channel and floodplain conditions. It is induced by a bridge or other structure that obstructs or constricts the free flow of water that occurs in a channel. Bank Protection: Engineering works for the purpose of protecting streambanks from erosion. Base Flood Discharge associated with the 100-year flood recurrence interval. Base floodplain Floodplain associated with the flood with a 100-year occurrence interval. Bedrock The solid rock exposed at the surface of the earth or overlain by soils and unconsolidated material. Bridge Waterway The cross-sectional area of a bridge opening available for flow, as measured below a specified stage and normal to the principal direction of flow. Bulking Increasing the water discharge to account for high concentrations of sediment in the flow. Channel Profile A plot of the stream channel elevations relative to distance separating them along the length of the channel that generally can be assumed as a channel gradient.
