Lab Exercise 2a
Series Circuit
When the resistances (components) in a hydraulic circuit are connected in such a way that only allows a single flow path from the pump through the remainder of the circuit as the fluid returns back to tank, the components are said to be connected in series with each other
. The resistance created by each component in the fluids flow path accumulates creating a total resistance to flow as seen on the pressure gauge at the pump’s outlet. This pressure gauge is referred to as the system’s pressure gauge (PG main). A pressure gauges may be placed before each component and would indicate the
pressure required to push the fluid through that individual component and any additional components downstream of it. The highest pressure in the circuit is always seen at the pump’s outlet. See the example illustration below:

Learning Outcomes
Work in compliance with the Ontario //Health and Safety Act and the College’s
Safety Standards during the performance of the lab exercise.
Follow written technical instructions to perform work tasks
Using standard ANSI symbols, sketch the schematic diagram of the lab’s hydraulic
circuit
Identify that pressure is proportional to resistance downstream of the pump
Identify that the flow rate remains a constant as resistance increases in a series
circuit
Identify that the flow rate in a parallel circuit divides proportional to the resistance
in each leg of the circuit
Identify the hydraulic components used in both a series and parallel circuit
Using Auto Cad, draw the schematic diagram of the lab’s hydraulic circuit.
Troubleshoot circuit operation as required
Procedure 1a: Setting the Relief Valve
Note: The relief valve can be adjusted and set without any additional
circuitry being connected on the bench 1.
Ensure that the PDP panel is in the “off” position and the Emergency Stop Button
is “depressed” before proceeding 2.
Ensure that the Vent Shut-off Handle (yellow) is in its horizontal position. (zero
pressure)
3.
Turn the Relief Valves Adjustment Knob fully counter clockwise. (lowest spring
setting)
4.
Release the Emergency Stop Button
5.
Following the learned safety procedure, turn the PNP panel’s switch to the “ON”
position
6.

8.
Turn the Vent Shut-off Handle (yellow) to its vertical position (maximum pressure)
9.
Slowly turn the Relief Valve’s Adjusting Knob clockwise.

15.
Turn the PDP switch to the Off position
Procedure 2a: Assembling the series circuit
1.
Ensure that the PDP panel is in the “off” position and the Emergency Stop Button is
“depressed” before proceeding to assemble your circuit.
2.
Using the ANSI schematic circuit as a guide, connect the circuit
on the training bench.
Remember; the Power Unit components are permanently configured and connected,
therefore only the “Backboard” components beginning at the pressure manifold need to be
connected by you

You are an engineer working in a company that provide compressors for food industry, your manger
asked you to do research to investigate the different compressor types along with their applications
A. Assess the different types of positive displacement and dynamic compressors available in
your company in a simple and brief form so you help clients to determine which type of
compressors they will use for their corresponding applications. You will have to discuss
the compressor working principle, common application, pressure ratio/operating range,
and main advantages and disadvantages. This report should be no more than two pages in

Water Wheel Design
You have been asked to design a water wheel that will generate electricity from a river in the
northern range. Because the flow rate from the river can fluctuate depending on seasonal
rainfall, you have decided to include a holding tank that will maintain a fairly constant water leve
Water from this tank will then fall onto the wheel to generate the electricity. Because there will
still be fluctuations due to the flow rate of the river, the final device will need to include
automatically controlled valving to maintain a constant power output.
Because this is a very complex system, you have decided to develop a simplified mathematical
model for the system, to help you firstly predict how changes to the in-flow rate of the stream
will affect the rotational speed of the water wheel. A simple representation of this system is
shown below.

Question 2 (Hydraulic systems)
A piston can move either from left to right or from right to left in a double-acting cylinder with two
ports. In figure 2a) the piston moves from left to right, and in figure 2b) it moves from right to left. The
internal diameter of the cylinder is 50 mm and the diameter of the piston rod is 20 mm. Assume there
is no friction between the piston and inner walls of the cylinder or elsewhere in the system. Calculate
the maximum force that can be applied by the piston in both case a) and case b) if the pump provides
a pressure of 150 kPa in both cases.
