Hydraulic-Electric Analogies: Transmission Comparisons, Part 2 (.PDF Download)

Continuing the discussion from the last installment of “Motion Control,” internal leakage is not the only loss in the pump. There are technical frictional losses as well. These are symbolized algebraically with R_fw, meaning “friction and windage,” an ages-old term for the analogous frictional losses in electrical motors and generators...
