Classic Mustangs equipped with Bendix power-assisted steering yield all kinds of challenges for enthusiasts who have to live with them. When components are fresh and everything is installed properly, ...
Welcome to the 22nd class in the Dirt Sports University Series, and the third on power steering. We finished up our second class in power steering with a look into the trio of Terrible Herbst ...
Compressible fluid flow through control valves will inevitably cause some form of flow-induced vibration in the fluid system. Identifying the type and cause of the vibration requires detective work.
While '50s and '60s Chevys were pretty good vehicles when they were factory fresh, today their shortcomings are painfully obvious. Take the steering for example. There were two choices back then.
Control valves experience significant reaction loads when they regulate choked flow. The highly restrictive, complex flow path of existing severe-service valves dissipates the forces from ...
FLUID POWER CONNECTORS & COMPONENTS ULTRA-MINIATURE PRESSURE COMPENSATED FLOW CONTROL VALVE WITH LOW FRICTION DIAPHRAGM, BESWICK ENGINEERING CO. INC. Some applications need flow control valves that ...
Feedwater control valves play a critical role in boiler operation. One important parameter of their design is the pressure drop at the rated condition as well as off-design conditions. However, ...
When I think of power steering I cant help but think about the hours I spent crawling under giant U-Haul trucks replacing broken power steering boxes and hoses. The dreaded power steering fluid that ...
Piezo elements are electromechanical transducers that convert mechanical forces (pressure, tensile stress or acceleration) into voltages. The inverse piezoelectric effect, precisely the opposite, ...
