20ME34P- Fluid Power Engineering
20ME34P- Fluid Power Engineering
Fluid power is one of the basic building blocks of modern automation and is most widely used system to convert fluid energy into useful work through the use of pump, compressor, control valves, actuators and other controlling elements. This technology is used to power a range of items such as tools, construction equipment and machineries, automotive and machineries in manufacturing sectors. Fluid power engineering involves study of properties of fluids, laws governing flow of fluids, working principles of fluid machineries and knowledge of control of machine movements. This course allows the students to develop the knowledge and understanding of the operational requirements of fluid power system and be able to recognise circuit components and build the circuits for applications needed in daily life
