40 Hydraulics: Use oil & other liquids to transmit force and to multiply force Pneumatics: Use compressed air, nitrogen, and other gases to transmit force and to multiply force Liquids & Gases both flow from high to low pressures A pressure gauge measures system pressure A flowmeter measures the rate of flow CFM or GPM Viscosity: Resistance of a liquid to flow (thickness)

41 Pumps: Supply a volume of flow Restrictions: Cause the pressure The pump in a pneumatic system is the air compressor Reservoirs hold a volume of fluid in both hydraulic & pneumatic systems Quick Connect fittings are used in both pneumatic & hydraulic systems Air must be conditioned by filtering & drying it

42 Always adjust pressure relief valves to provide a safe operating pressure. Always wear safety glasses or a face shield to protect your eyes. Make necessary changes and adjustments to fluid circuits when they are not under pressure. Always respect the pressure in fluid circuits and respect the speed at which cylinders can move.

43 Boyle s Law Boyle's Law relates the volume and pressure of an ideal gas held at a constant temperature. Robert Boyle (25 January December 1691) was an Anglo Irish natural philosopher, chemist, physicist, inventor, and early gentleman scientist, noted for his work in physics and chemistry. He is best known for the formulation of Boyle's law. Although his research and personal philosophy clearly has its roots in the alchemical tradition, he is largely regarded today as the first modern chemist, and therefore one of the founders of modern chemistry. He is very famous in the science world for being the first scientist that kept accurate experiment logs. Among his works, The Sceptical Chymist is seen as a cornerstone book in the field of chemistry.

44 Pascal's Law states that if you apply pressure to fluids that are confined (or can't flow to anywhere), the fluids will then transmit (or send out) that same pressure in all directions at the same rate. 10,000# 40,000# 1000 PSI 10 Square Inches 40 Square Inches

45 Pascal s Law Energy, Power & Transportation Technology Pascal's Law states that if you apply pressure to fluids that are confined (or can't flow to anywhere), the fluids will then transmit (or send out) that same pressure in all directions at the same rate. Blaise Pascal (pronounced [blez pɑskɑl]), (June 19, 1623 August 19, 1662) was a French mathematician, physicist, and religious philosopher. He was a child prodigy who was educated by his father. Pascal's earliest work was in the natural and applied sciences where he made important contributions to the construction of mechanical calculators, the study of fluids, and clarified the concepts of pressure and vacuum by generalizing the work of Evangelista Torricelli. Pascal also wrote powerfully in defense of the scientific method. He was a mathematician of the first order. Pascal helped create two major new areas of research. He wrote a significant treatise on the subject of projective geometry at the age of sixteen and corresponded with Pierre de Fermat from 1654 and later on probability theory, strongly influencing the development of modern economics and social science. Following a mystical experience in late 1654, he abandoned his scientific work and devoted himself to philosophy and theology.
