Fluid Power

4. state that the volume of a confined gas is proportional to its temperature, provides its pressure remains constant
5. a device that controls, either automatically or manually, the flow of a fluid.
7. pressure exerted by a confined fluid acts undiminished equally in all directons.
10. a cylinder that acts under pressure in both directions to move a load.
11. an air pump that compresses air into a receiver tank.
13. a device used to remove contamination from a fluid.
17. a device used to convert fluid power into mechanical power in the form of linear motion
18. the measure of a fluid's thickness or resistance to flow.
19. a cylinder that acts under pressure in one direction only and returns automatically when the pressure is released.

1. the use of gas flowing under pressure to transmit power from one location to another.
2. the use of a liquid flowing under pressure to transmit power from one location to another.
3. a device used to measure flow rate.
6. the amount or quantity of something.
7. the force per unit area exerted by a fluid against a surface.
8. A sliding piece moving against fluid pressure which consists of a cylindrical body fitting within a cylindrical chamber that moves back and forth.
9. a device used to control flow in a hydraulic system.
12. move air between the other components
14. used to transport fluid in a circuit.
15. a valve that allows flow in one direction but prevents flow in the opposite direction.
16. the volume of fluid that moves through a system in a given period of time.
