Power Transduction



In Problem 6.1, you are given the following relationship: This should indicate to you that since the resulting flow depends both on the commanded current (i) and on some force of pressure (P), you will need to balance whatever torque is generated from the rotating table and roller bearings (shown in the figure) with the pressure force (P) in the hydraulic motor.

You should be to develop your own relationship between torque and pressure by balancing power in and power out.
