Design of Industrial Hydraulic Systems (In the SI Units) provides a systematic approach to the engineering design of industrial hydraulic systems. The book explains the principles of hydraulic system design, component selection, performance calculations, and sizing procedures required to develop reliable and energy-efficient hydraulic installations.
Beginning with the fundamental principles of hydraulic power transmission, the book explains the engineering characteristics of hydraulic fluids, contamination control, filters, reservoirs, pumps, cylinders, hydraulic motors, accumulators, fluid conductors, and associated system components. Mathematical relationships used for sizing and selecting hydraulic components are presented in a clear and practical manner, together with worked design examples.
Special emphasis is placed on system performance, heat generation, hydraulic efficiency, pressure losses, component specifications, and practical design methodology. The book concludes with complete hydraulic system design examples that demonstrate how individual component calculations are integrated into a complete industrial hydraulic system.
Written entirely in the SI system of units, this book is intended for engineering students, faculty members, design engineers, and industrial professionals involved in the design and application of hydraulic systems.
Unlike conventional design handbooks that assume extensive prior knowledge of hydraulics, this book begins with a concise review of the fundamental principles required for hydraulic system design. It then progresses systematically through component selection, engineering calculations, sizing procedures, and complete design examples. This step-by-step approach enables readers from mechanical, production, manufacturing, automation, and related engineering disciplines to confidently develop practical industrial hydraulic systems.
