🔍 Key Concepts

• Hydraulic reservoir design – how tank shape affects fluid flow, settling of contaminants, and deaeration • Flow path from return line to suction strainer – longer, slower paths vs. short, turbulent paths • Effect of baffles and tank dimensions on fluid velocity and how long particles have to settle out

💭 Think About

• Trace the path oil takes from where it returns to the tank to where it is drawn back into the pump. Which modification gives the fluid the longest, smoothest route with the lowest velocity? • Which changes will actually help dirt and air separate and settle to the bottom/escape at the top, and which might just move the same dirty fluid around differently? • Think about surface area versus depth: for the same volume, what shape tank generally gives better contaminant settling – tall and narrow, or long and spread out?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify where the return line enters, where the baffle(s) are, and where the suction strainer is located in the illustration • Ask which option will increase residence time (time fluid spends in the reservoir) and reduce turbulence between inlet and outlet • Eliminate any option that might keep the flow path short or stir up settled contaminants near the suction line
