Hydraulics & Pneumatics (10ME73)

Duration: 1 hour Date: 16/10/2017
Staff: Mr. Srinath Pai, Mr. Vishwas Max Marks: 25
Note: Answer any ONE full question from each part.
PART – A
1. a) Explain the construction and working of variable displacement vane pump.
b) A hydraulic pump has displacement of volume of 120 cm3. Its actual flow rate is 0.0015 m3/s at 900
rpm. Determine its volumetric efficiency (7 + 3 = 10 marks)
2. a) With a neat sketch explain swash plate type axial pump 10 marks
PART-B
3. A hydraulic motor has a displacement of 130 cm3 and operates with a pressure of 105 bar and a speed of
2000 rpm. If the actual flow rate consumed by the motor is 0.005 m3/s and the actual torque delivered by
the motor is 200 N-m, find volumetric efficiency, mechanical efficiency, overall efficiency and actual
power delivered by the motor. (10 marks)
4. Explain the operations of single and double acting cylinders with a neat sketch (10 marks)
PART C
5. Draw a neat sketch of a cushioned cylinder (05 marks)
6. Draw a neat sketch of pressure compensated vane pump (05 marks)
