Content(s)

Course on hydraulic systems (4 hours)

• Hydraulic circuits and their components
• Hydraulic pumps and motors

Design of mechanical and hydraulic systems (20 hours + 20 hours of independent study)

• Problem-based learning in groups
• Sizing a chain and belt drive for a hydraulic motor
• Sizing rotary guides in a pneumatic pump
• Sizing a multi-piston hydraulic motor

Dismantling complex hydraulic systems (6 hours)

• Variable displacement vane pumps
• Fixed displacement vane pumps
• Axial piston pumps

Module: Fundamentals of Mechanical Design and Module: Advanced Mechanical Design:

• Knowledge of mechanical engineering (reading technical drawings, technical drawing, connections between solid bodies, linear and rotational guidance)
• Modelling of mechanical systems (general mechanics, kinematic analysis and hyperstatic systems)
• Fundamentals of materials strength

Test

Regular assessment:
ER: Resit-eligible assessment: 2-hour supervised written exam
EN: Non-resit-eligible assessment: mark for the APP assignments

Resit session:
ER: the mark obtained in session 2 replaces the ER mark from session 1
EN: Non-resit assessment

Mark calculation:

• Mark for group-based practical assignment submissions (EN) 50%
• 3-hour individual written exam (ER) 50%
