In this course, you will be introduced to the fundamental principles and analytical modeling of fluid power components, circuits, and systems. Emphasizes hydraulic power transmission systems, including pumps, motors, cylinders, and hydraulic circuitry. You will learn the benefits and limitations of hydraulic power compared with other power transmission technologies; the operation, use, and symbols of common hydraulic components; how to formulate and analyze models of hydraulic components and circuits; and how to design and predict the performance of hydraulic power circuits. In additional, you will learn lots of hydraulic system of construction machinery.
1. Curriculum purpose
By this course studying, the following abilities are enabled to obtain:
(1) To master the working performances of hydraulic components and control systems.
(2) Analysis of hydraulic control system.
(3) Simulation of hydraulic control system.
2. Basic requirements
(1) To learn the basic knowledge of hydraulic system and some common hydraulic system.
(2) Be familiar with basic control principles and analytical methods of electro-hydraulic control system.
(3) To understand the transient and steady-state analysis of common electro-hydraulic control systems.
(4) To simulate the common electro-hydraulic control system using the simulation software .
Before this course for the mechanical principle, other professional courses should be studied, including Mechanical design, Hydraulic and pneumatic transmission, Hydraulic system design, Electrical technology & electrical engineering, Mechanical control engineering, Integrative technique of mechanics-electronics-hydraulics, etc. It also requires students to master mechanical designs of hydraulic system, and basic theoretical knowledge of electric control, etc. such as, Classical Mechanics, Descriptive Geometry, Design of machinery.
