A hydraulic motor has 82 cm3 volumetric displacement. It has a pressure rating 70 bar and
receives oil from a 0.6 Lps theoretical frow rate pump .find the motor :
a- speed
b- theoretical torque
c- theoretical power

Qth ( m) = Vd (m) N(m)

𝑄𝑡ℎ(𝑚)
η𝑣(𝑚) = Qth ( m) = ηv(m) Qa(m)
𝑄𝑎(𝑚)
The actual flow rate into the motor is the same flow rate out of the pump
Qa ( m) = Qa(P)

𝑄𝑎(𝑃)
η𝑣(𝑃) = Qa (O) = ηv(P) Qth(P) Also Qth ( P) = Vd (P) N(P)
𝑄𝑡ℎ(𝑃)
Qth ( P) = Vd (P) N(P) = (82*10-6 )* 500 = 0.041 m3/min
= 6.83*10-4 m3/s
Qa (P) = ηv(P) Qth(P) = 0.82 * 0.041= 0.03362 m3/min
= 5.6 *10-4 m3/s
Since the flow rate out of the pump equal the flow rate into motor

Qa ( m) = Qa(P)

𝑄𝑡ℎ(𝑚)
η𝑣(𝑚) = Qth ( m) =0.92* 0.03362 = 0.0309 m3 /min
