Western Diesel Hydraulics in Preservation
When British Railways initiated its Modernisation Plan in 1955, its Western Region elected to trial locomotive designs with hydraulic transmission whilst BR encouraged designs with electric transmission.The Western Region felt that the lighter weight of 78 tons for a diesel hydraulic locomotive producing 2000 hp, compared to an equivalent weight of 132 tons for a diesel electric locomotive producing 2000 hp, would better meet BR's requirement for a modern locomotive.BR's failure to follow up with its declared policy of having all freight vehicles fitted with brakes saw operators preferring the heavier diesel electric designs which proved more able to operate trains without through brakes at higher speed.The greatest concern was with operating costs whereby the Western Region policy of replacing components at the depot then transferring them to Swindon for repair incurred heavy costs that were reflected in the maintenance cost per locomotive.Given the smaller number of diesel hydraulic locomotives and the larger number of diesel electric locomotives it was little surprise that by the mid-1960s a cost comparison showed that the build and operation of diesel electric locomotives was increasingly cheaper over the long term.Furthermore the increased availability of diesel electric locomotives released by a combination of factors provided an opportunity to replace the diesel hydraulic fleet, which was withdrawn from service during the 1970s.The preservation of redundant locomotives was slow but once it was confirmed, by the preservation of Hymek' Class 35 D7017 in 1975, that public appeals could quickly fund the preservation of withdrawn examples further public appeals followed.In a short space of time 31 locomotives from a mixed fleet of 358 locomotives entered preservation to remind both enthusiasts and the public of a concept (i.e. hydraulic transmission) that had had much to offer but had been dismissed on questionable financial grounds.

How does hydraulics work?
Hydraulics work by using a liquid, typically oil, to transmit force from one point to another. When pressure is applied to the liquid in a confined space, it creates a force that can be used to move objects or machinery. This force is then transferred through hydraulic cylinders or motors to perform tasks such as lifting heavy loads or moving equipment. The key principle behind hydraulics is Pascal's Law, which states that pressure applied to a fluid in a closed system will be transmitted equally in all directions.

What experiences are there with hydraulics underwater?
Hydraulics are commonly used underwater in various applications such as underwater robotics, subsea construction, and offshore drilling operations. These systems use hydraulic fluid to transmit power and control movement in underwater environments. Engineers and technicians working in these industries have extensive experience with designing, installing, and maintaining hydraulic systems that can withstand the challenges of operating underwater, including high pressures, corrosion, and limited accessibility for maintenance. Overall, hydraulics have proven to be a reliable and effective technology for powering equipment and machinery in underwater settings.

Can the hydraulics in an airplane freeze?
Yes, the hydraulics in an airplane can freeze if the temperature drops low enough. This can happen if the airplane is flying at high altitudes where temperatures are extremely cold. To prevent this, airplanes are equipped with heating systems to keep the hydraulics at a safe operating temperature. Additionally, airlines have procedures in place to ensure that the hydraulics are properly checked and maintained before each flight to prevent any issues related to freezing.
-
Can the hydraulics freeze in an airplane?
Yes, the hydraulics in an airplane can freeze if the hydraulic fluid used is not suitable for low temperatures. This can lead to a loss of control surfaces, landing gear, and other critical functions of the aircraft. To prevent this, airplanes are equipped with systems to keep the hydraulic fluid at a suitable temperature, such as insulation, heating elements, or using hydraulic fluid with a lower freezing point. Regular maintenance and inspections are also conducted to ensure the hydraulic system is functioning properly.

Are lowriders without hydraulics allowed in Switzerland?
Yes, lowriders without hydraulics are allowed in Switzerland. The use of hydraulics in vehicles is generally restricted in Switzerland, and modifications to a vehicle's suspension system are subject to strict regulations. However, lowriders without hydraulics are not prohibited as long as they comply with the country's vehicle safety and modification laws. It's important for car owners to ensure that their lowriders meet all legal requirements before driving on Swiss roads.

Why does the clutch slip due to hydraulics?
The clutch can slip due to hydraulics because hydraulic fluid is responsible for transferring pressure from the clutch pedal to the clutch release mechanism. If there is a leak in the hydraulic system, it can result in a loss of pressure, causing the clutch to slip. Additionally, air bubbles in the hydraulic fluid can also lead to a lack of pressure and cause the clutch to slip. Proper maintenance and regular checks of the hydraulic system are essential to prevent clutch slipping due to hydraulics.

How can you retrofit hydraulics on a tractor?
To retrofit hydraulics on a tractor, you will need to first identify the type of hydraulic system that is compatible with your tractor model. Next, you will need to acquire the necessary hydraulic components such as a hydraulic pump, hoses, control valves, and cylinders. Install the hydraulic pump onto the tractor's engine, connect the hoses to the pump and the hydraulic components, and mount the control valves in a convenient location. Finally, test the hydraulic system to ensure it is functioning properly before using it for any tasks.

What are the differences between hydraulics and pneumatics?
Hydraulics and pneumatics are both methods of transmitting power using fluids, but they differ in the type of fluid used. Hydraulics use liquid, typically oil, to transmit power, while pneumatics use gas, usually compressed air. Hydraulics are generally more powerful and can handle heavier loads, but pneumatics are cleaner, quieter, and more easily controlled. Additionally, hydraulics are often used in applications where precise control and high force are required, while pneumatics are more commonly used in applications where speed and flexibility are important.
