Aim:
The object of this course is to give knowledge about components and systems for fluid transfer of energy and control principles for fluid power systems. After the course, student should:
- Be able to analyse fluid power systems with respect to performance, power consumption and controllability.
- Be able to apply static calculations of fluid power components and systems.
- Have knowledge about component functions and component characteristics in the field of fluid power.
- Have knowledge of measurements on components and systems.
