Capacity of a hydraulic accumulator is defined in terms of maximum_____________________?
Correct answer: C. Amount of energy stored
- A. Rate of falling of ram
- B. Flow rate through accumulator
- C. Amount of energy stored
- D. Volume available in the cylinder
Explanation
The capacity of a hydraulic accumulator is specified by the maximum energy it can store and release. Flow rate and ram-falling rate describe operation, while cylinder volume alone does not define stored capacity.
