Subject syllabus

1. Hydrostatic pumps and motors: types, parameters, construction, static and dynamic characteristics, control and regulation.
2. Control valves: directional and flow control valves, pressure control valves, proportional directional control valves, servo valves.
3. Accessories of hydraulic systems: hydraulic accumulators, filters, seals, tanks, coolers, heaters, pipes and hoses.
4. Working fluids of hydraulic systems: types, properties (physical, chemical, ecological).
5. Hydrostatic systems control: speed and force (torque) control.
6. Energy saving hydrostatic systems: power unit, Load-Sensing, secondary control of hydraulic motors, pressure energy recuperation.
7. Hydrostatic systems: with accumulators, with slip-in cartridge valves, with two-way and three-way flow control valves, with proportional directional control valves, with two and more hydraulic motors (synchronous operation).
8. Hydrostatic transmissions.
9. Servomechanisms.
