Basic Hydraulic Principles > Hydraulic Pressure and Force
Pressure is the force per unit area exerted on a surface, in other words the force divided by the area of that surface:
Pressure = Force/Surface Area
Therefore hydraulic pressure is the force per unit area exerted by a fluid on the surface within the container.
To demonstrate how hydrauic pressure relates to force and area, this interactive animation is simple yet effective.
Buttons on screen provide the instructor with control over the force applied whilst pressure and force are clearly indicated numerically and through use of colour.
The package includes pistons of different diameters.
