What is a Hydraulic Project? Basic Principles for Design, Implementation and Efficiency

Hydraulic systems; It is used in a wide range of applications, from industrial facilities to mobile machinery, from power plants to marine applications. A correct hydraulic project design is essential for these systems to operate safely, efficiently and long-lasting.

The goal of a hydraulic project is to ensure that power transmission is done with the highest efficiency while at the same time guaranteeing the system's ease of maintenance and operational safety.

  1. What is a Hydraulic Project?

Hydraulic project; It is the engineering work that includes the design, calculation and planning stages for a system working with fluid pressure to perform a specific task.

In this context, the project covers the following key components:

  • Hydraulic Power Unit (HPU)
  • Control Valve Groups
  • Choosing a Hydraulic Cylinder or Motor
  • Sizing of Pipe and Hose Lines
  • Filtration and Cooling Systems
  • Electrical and Control Integration
  1. How Does the Hydraulic Project Process Work?

The success of a hydraulic project is possible with a systematic engineering approach.

  1. Needs Analysis and System DefinitionIn the first stage, the work to be done by the system, the required force, speed, stroke and environmental conditions are determined. This information forms the basis of the project design.
  2. Circuit Diagram (Hydraulic Diagram) PreparationA hydraulic circuit diagram is prepared according to the functional requirements. This diagram shows how the system works and which components will be used.
  3. Component Selection and SizingComponents such as pumps, valves, cylinders, accumulators, and filtration equipment are selected based on appropriate flow, pressure, and temperature ratings.
  4. Piping and Installation PlanPipe diameters and line lengths are carefully calculated to minimize pressure losses in the system. Additionally, a mounting plan is prepared considering vibration, leakage, and ease of maintenance.
  5. Testing and CommissioningAfter
    the installation is completed, the system is subjected to pressure testing, flushing and leak checks. Thus, all errors are fixed before commissioning.
  6. Energy Efficiency in Hydraulic Project

One of the key goals in modern hydraulic projects is to improve energy efficiency. Therefore:

  • Variable speed pumps (VFD controlled systems),
  • Load Sensing systems,
  • By using pressure compensated valves, energy consumption can be significantly reduced.

In addition, correct filtration and oil temperature control both improve system performance and extend component life.
