COURSE DESCRIPTION

FLPT 111 — Hydraulic Calculations  (5 cr)

This course is a review of basic algebra skills and procedures required for setting up and solving fluid power problems. Mathematical formulas required to calculate oil pressure, actuator forces and speed, oil flow and velocities required for fluid line sizing are emphasized. The use of force and speed requirements of a machine to set up the hydraulic system calculations required for determining oil flow, oil pressure and the input horsepower is stressed. Prerequisite: Concurrent enrollment in FLPT 112, 113, 114. (SCC)
