HYDRAULICS

Introduction

• surveyors – usually not be directly involved in the

design of hydraulics systems – most certainly will be responsible for the

setting out of such systems.

• surveyor may need to alter the design of a system ‘on-site’ – the principles involved in this field must

be understood.

Introduction

• It is with this in mind and the desire to make you better able to understand the requirements of the engineer or design draftsman responsible for the project that this module is included.

Definitions & DiscussionsHydrostatics & Hydrodynamics

• Hydrostatics– The study of the properties of fluids which

are at rest or in equilibrium (e. g. storage systems such as dams and reservoirs).

• Hydrodynamics– The study of the properties of fluids which

are in motion in pipes and channels (e.g. water or sewerage reticulation and drainage systems).

Definitions & DiscussionsFluid

– can offer no permanent resistance to any force causing change of shape.

– flow under their own weight

– take the shape of any solid body with which they are in contact.

Definitions & DiscussionsFluid cont

– change of shape is caused by shearing forces; therefore if shearing forces are acting in a fluid it will flow.

– Conversely, if a fluid is at rest there can be no shearing forces in it, and all forces are perpendicular (normal) to the planes on which they act.


• Fluids are divided into liquids and gases.

• Liquid – difficult to compress; – a given mass occupies a fixed volume

irrespective of the size of the container holding it

– a ‘free surface’ is formed as a boundary between the liquid and the air above it.


• Fluids are divided into liquids and gases.

• Gas – easily compressed; – expands to fill any vessel in which it is

contained – does not form a free surface.

Definitions & DiscussionsPressure & Intensity of Pressure

• Pressure– force exerted by a fluid on the surfaces with

which it is in contact, or by one part of a fluid on the adjoining part.

• intensity of pressure at any point – force exerted on the unit area at that point

• measured in newton’s per square metre in SI units

• An alternative metric unit is the bar, which is 105 N/m2.

Definitions & DiscussionsPressure Scales

• Atmospheric Pressure– The earth is surrounded by an atmosphere many miles high. – The pressure due to this atmosphere at the surface of the earth

depends upon the head of air above the surface. – Atmospheric pressure at sea level is about 101.325 kN/m2,

• equivalent to a head of 10.35m of water • or 760 mm of mercury approximately, and decreases with altitude


• Vacuum– A perfect vacuum is a completely empty

space in which, therefore, the pressure is zero

• Gauge Pressure – the intensity of pressure measured

above or below atmospheric pressure


• Absolute Pressure– the intensity of pressure measured above

the absolute zero, which is a perfect vacuum


– absolute pressure = atmospheric pressure + gauge pressure, or

– p(abs) = p(atm) + p(g)


– absolute pressure = atmospheric pressure + gauge pressure, or

– p(abs) = p(atm) + p(g)

Definitions & DiscussionsDimensions & Units

• Dimensions– various physical properties that all

matter possess– describe the state of things

• Units– internationally agreed measurable quantities of the

various dimensions– SI ( System International )

• kilogram, metre, cubic metre, metre per second, kelvin, ampere, and joule

Definitions & DiscussionsDimensions & Units

• Seven base dimensions, each with its own base unit

Hydrostatics Pressure Units

• Expressed in two ways– pressure head

• the height of the free surface of a particular liquid above the surface in question

– traditional pressure units• Pascals (Pa) = Newtons/square metre

Hydrostatics Hydrostatic Pressure on Surfaces• A fluid in contact with a solid surface will exert a force on every small area of the surface. • The total pressure on the surface can be represented by a point force equal to the product

of the pressure on the small element and its area.
