AgendaIntroduction Advantages of a Hydraulic System Hydraulic System Components and Design Hydraulic Power Components Hydraulic System Interfaces Conclusion
Introduction1 As airplanes grow in size, so do the forces needed to move the flight controls thus the need to transmit larger amount of powerAir Turbine Pump

3 Pilot inputs are transmitted to remote actuators and amplified
4 Pilot commands move actuators with little effort
IntroductionHydraulics is based on the fact that liquids are incompressible. Hydraulic system is a system where liquid under pressure is used to transmit energy. In it, a hydraulic pump converts mechanical power to hydraulic power. An actuating cylinder converts hydraulic power to mechanical power.
AdvantagesLighter weight Ease of installation Simplification of inspection Minimum maintenance requirements Dead beat Fire Hazard, not a Shock Hazard Develops practically unlimited force
Why use Hydraulics?Effective and efficient method of power amplificationSmall control effort results in a large power output
Precise control of load rate, position and magnitudeInfinitely variable rotary or linear motion control Adjustable limits / reversible direction / fast response
Ability to handle multiple loads simultaneouslyIndependently in parallel or sequenced in series
Smooth, vibration free power outputLittle impact from load variation
Hydraulic fluid transmission mediumRemoves heat generated by internal losses Serves as lubricant to increase component life
Principles of OperationGoverned by Pascals law The oil is in contact with both sides of the piston head but at different pressures. High pressure oil may be pumped into either side of the piston head. The selector valve determines to which side of the actuating cylinder the high pressure oil (red colored side) is sent.
EVOLUTION OF THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
A basic hydraulic system consists of a supply of hydraulic fluid, a pump, an actuator, and a selector valve.
A double-acting actuator allows the actuator to be powered in both directions. A two-way valve allows selection of either side of the actuator.
A Simple Hydraulic System
Hydraulic Fluidmust be able hydraulic liquidsof the lines with a minimum also called to flow through all of opposition which power is transferred medium by must be incompressible in hydraulic machinery must have good lubricating properties to prevent wear in based on mineral oil or water. the pump and valves must inhibit corrosion and not chemically attack any of the seals in the system must not foam in operation

HYDRAULIC POWER COMPONENTS
PumpsFUNCTION
is to move fluid through the system transmitting hydraulic powerTYPES Hand pump Powered pump
Example of a hand pump
Powered PumpsFUNCTION Is to change mechanical horsepower to hydraulic horsepower TYPES Gear pumps: move fluid based upon the number of gear teeth and the volume spacing between gear teeth. Piston pumps: move fluid by pushing it through the motion of the pistons within the pump
Powered PumpsPRINCIPLES OF GEAR PUMPSThe liquid from the reservoir is pushed between the gear teeth. The oil is moved around to the other side by the action of the drive gear itself and sent through the pressure line.
Powered PumpsPRINCIPLES OF RECIPROCATING PISTON PUMP As the cylinder block rotates, space between the block and the pistons increase, letting in more oil. As the block rotates from bottom dead center, the reverse occurs and the pistons push oil out through the outlet
ValvesTYPES Flow controlSelector valves Check valves A flow-control valve selects the route of Sequence valves flow of the fluid through the system, and is not Priority valves normally concerned with the pressure. Quick-disconnect Relief valves
Pressure controlPressure regulator Pressure-control valves, on the other Pressure reducer hand, adjust, regulate, or limit the amount of pressure in the system, or in any portion of the system.
AccumulatorsUSES Absorbs the shocks due to rapid pressure variations in a hydraulic system Helps maintain a constant pressure within the hydraulic system Helps the hydraulic pump under peak pressure loads It is an emergency source of power Spherical shape is preferred for accumulators
PRINCIPLE Gas valve lets in compressed gas at system pressure Diaphragm pops up & oil is sent through system When system pressure>accumulator pressure, diaphragm deploys
ActuatorThe function is to take the pressure & hydraulic fluid flow & change them into linear or rotary motion. Single piston double rod is an equal displacement cylinder used in aileron system or automatic guidance system Double piston-double rod actuating cylinder used in bomb bay doors
