DSL 106 W9 PP25 D2 Flashcard

Front

What happens to the speed of a hydrostatic drive when the flow increases?

Back

Speed increases.

Front

What is the most common example of a hydrodynamic drive used in mobile equipment?

Back

Torque converter.

Front

What does HST stand for in the context of hydrostatic drives?

Back

Hydrostatic Transmission.

Front

How many pumps and motors are used for the left side of the machine in a Dual-Path HST?

Back

One pump and motor.

Front

Which of the following is NOT a component described in the operation of an HST?

Back

Fixed motor.

Front

Define hydrostatic drive.

Back

A system that uses pressurized fluid to transmit power and control motion.

Front

Explain the principle of operation of a torque converter.

Back

A torque converter uses fluid dynamics to transfer power from the engine to the transmission, allowing for smooth acceleration.

Front

What is the role of inching valves in a hydrostatic drive system?

Back

Inching valves allow for fine control of speed and movement in a hydrostatic drive.

Front

Describe the function of pressure-release solenoids in an HST.

Back

Pressure-release solenoids help to control the pressure within the hydraulic system, ensuring safe operation.

Front

What is the difference between a hydrostatic drive and a hydrodynamic drive?

Back

Hydrostatic drives use pressurized fluid for power transmission, while hydrodynamic drives use fluid motion and momentum.
