Description
Book SynopsisA complete guide to hydraulic and pneumatic power system engineering and technologyâthoroughly revised for the latest advances
Written by an expert in the field, this hands-on guide covers the construction, operation, and calculation of fluid power systems. Special attention is paid to building solid theoretical background that enables the reader to further study and analyze the steady state and dynamic performance of the diverse fluid power elements and systems. In addition to the mathematical treatment and theory, the book includes case studiesâmost accompanied by detailed constructional drawingsâof diverse elements of industrial, mobile, and aeronautical hydraulic power systems. Readers will learn how to build low-loss transmission lines and actuators, analyze system performance, optimize efficiency, and much more.
Fluid Power Engineering, Second Edition includes a new chapter on electrohydraulic proportional valve technology as well as
