Aim:
This course is intended to give a broad and deep knowledge in hydraulic servo systems. The knowledge aims for the course are:
  • to convey deep knowledge about component functionality and characteristics in the area of Hydraulic Servo Systems.
  • to give knowledge about calculation methods and system design.
  • to convey knowledge about control principals and control engineering methods with respect to controllability and energy consumption.
  • to give insight in measurement methods and computer usage for system analyses.
    The skill aims for the course are:
    • be able to model and analyse hydraulic servo systems with respect to performance, controllability and energy consumption.
    • be able to apply calculation methods for component selections and system design.
    • be able to perform measurements on components and systems.


  • Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered)
    Fluid power systems, Automatic Control

    Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.

    Supplementary courses:
