What kind of pressure is developed in a semi truck hydraulic brake system?

Semi trucks have air brakes, no hydraulics some very old trucks had air over hydraulic systems but they used no more pressure than any other system


What hydraulic and pneumatic systems are in a human body?

The human body hydraulic system is more than just your digestive and circulatory system. It also your respiratory and nervous system.


What is hydraulic oil use for?

Hydraulic oils are used in hydraulic systems to power them. There are different hydraulic oils with different levels of viscosity. The higher the viscosity normally the more efficient the pumping system will be.


What are 2 advantages of a hydraulic system?

Pneumatic systems use air or a gas which is compressible. When compressed, water can form in pneumatics.Hydraulic systems use oil or a transmission fluid, which is comparatively uncompressible, meaning more efficient power transmission and higher operating pressures.


What is the difference between a hydrostatic and a hydraulic system?

By "Hydrostatic" systems one tends to mean "closed loop hydraulic systems". That is hydraulic systems comprising a pump and motor hwere the pump supplies the motor whose return side supplies the pump. The speed and direction of rotation of the hydraulic motor being changed according to the displacement angle of the variable displacement axial pison pump. "Open loop hydraulic systems" on the other hand comprises various motors often one or more "linear motors" (hydraulic cylinders). When using hydraulic cylinders in hydraulic systems one needs a reservoir to be able to hold the various volume need of the cylinder. (the displacement on the piston side is usually bigger than the rodside). The reservoir needs a "breather" due to the varous displacement needs hence the "open system".

Difference between pneumatic and hydraulic machine?

Pneumatic system is operated by compressed air while hydraulic system is operated with pressurised hydraulic oil or any type viscous oil. Hydraulic systems can usually produce higher control forces and work under extreme operating conditions. This is the system that is primarily used on aircraft to move control surfaces and engine controls. You can often classify pneumatic systems because they have a pump (gas pump) and hydraulic systems have a piston. That is the difference. Also, pneumatic systems are louder because it is a gas under pressure. 1. By definition, hydraulics is used in controlling or harnessing power with the use of pressurized fluids whereas pneumatics studies how pressurized gases influences mechanical motion or movement. 2. Hydraulics uses an incompressible fluid medium like oil whereas pneumatics uses a compressible gas like air. 3. Hydraulic applications demand greater pressures during operations that reach thousands of pounds per square inch whereas pneumatic applications only require 100 psi pressures more or less. 4. Most hydraulic applications generally use bigger components that pneumatic applications. 5. Hydraulic systems are generally more difficult to operate compared to pneumatic applications


Which part of a hydraulic system has more pressure?

Is there any liquids can replace gas in compressor?

I'm not sure what you mean but a compressor is a machine for compressing gas, it can compress all gasses. A compressor is a type of Pneumatic system. All Pneumatic systems compress air, or a gas of some kind. If you replace the gas with liquid, the system becomes Hydraulic rather than Pneumatic. Hydraulic systems require more powerfull pumps to drive them and high tensile hoses & seals through which to conduct the fluid. An air compressor is not suitable for use with liquid, as the pressures involved are generally far higher. The hydraulic equivelant of an air compressor would require a particular kind of liquid; one that is non-compressible. These liquids are manufactured specially for such systems. They are more or less the same as the brake fluid you would find in a car or other vehicle.

How is hydraulic system better than pneumatic system with a brief disicussion?

Difficult question to answer without context. Key thing to understand is a pneumatic system uses a compressor, whereas a hydraulic system uses a pump. Hydraulic fluid is essentially incompressible, whereas compressed air will fill any volume. Ask yourself: What is my pneumatic/hydraulic system supposed to do? How fast should it react and what horsepower is available to drive my compressor/pump? What force do I need at my actuator/motor or whatever the system is expected to power? Generally, I think pneumatic systems can react more quickly but power density is lower, so if the load is very high a hydraulic system might be better. A typical shop pneumatic system might only operate at 50psi, whereas a hydraulic system can operate at 3000psi. Finally, it's also worth thinking about system safety: if a pneumatic component fails, there will be an explosive decompression, but if a hydraulic component fails, it will leak but will not explode because hydraulic fluid does not store energy, it only transmits it.


Why are aircraft hydraulic power supplies colour coded?

I think they decided that it was just more user friendly and more fool proof than numbers. (747's hydraulic systems are numbered) The color coding of the hydraulic lines is a European practise. The Boeing designs and most US designed a/c have their hdraulic systems numbered. The color code is really just a way to Identify the separate systems in the documentation and the cockpit procedure as well as physically on the hydraulic tubing.
