Hydraulic Units
Hydraulic units are standardized measurements used to describe the behavior and performance of a hydraulic system. Understanding these units is essential for system design, analysis, and troubleshooting.
🔹 Key Hydraulic Units:
| Parameter |
Common Units |
Description |
| Pressure |
psi, bar, MPa |
Force per unit area; drives fluid movement |
| Flow rate |
L/min, GPM |
Volume of fluid flowing per minute |
| Force |
N, kN, lbf |
Output produced by fluid pressure on an area |
| Power |
kW, HP |
Work done per unit time in the system |
| Area |
cm², in² |
