Fluid Power Systems MPW 349
(Bylaw Breakdown)
• Fluid power systems refer to the use of a fluid (liquid or gas) to transmit power and perform work.
• These systems use either hydraulic fluids (liquids) or air (gases) to move, control, and transmit energy efficiently in
various mechanical applications.
• Fluid power is widely used in industrial, automotive, and aerospace systems due to its high power density and
precise control.
