Fluid power is the use of under pressure to generate, control, and transmit . Fluid power is conventionally subdivided into (using a such as or ) and (using a such as or other gases). Although is also a fluid, is usually classified separately from fluid power (implying hydraulics or pneumatics). Compressed.
[pdf] Fluid power systems can produce high power and high forces in small volumes, compared with electrically-driven systems. The forces that are exerted can be easily monitored within a system by gauges and meters. In comparison to systems that provide force through electricity or fuel, fluid power systems are known to have long service lives if maintained properly. The working fluid passing through a fluid motor inherently provides cooling of the motor, which must be separatel.
