Efficient hydraulic fluids - Compressibility is still one of the most critically important factors

摘要

Hydraulic fluids transmit power as a hydraulic system converts mechanical energy into fluid energy and subsequently to mechanical work. To achieve this conversion efficiently, hydraulic fluids need to be relatively incompressible. Hydraulic fluids must also minimize wear, reduce friction, provide cooling and prevent rust and corrosion, be compatible with system components and help keep the system free of deposits.
