Flow control valves regulate fluid flow and include pressure control valves, flow control valves, and direction control valves. Pressure control valves such as relief valves and reducing valves maintain system pressure. Flow control valves include compensated and non-compensated types to regulate flow rates. Direction control valves include 2/2, 3/2, and 4/3 styles to control fluid direction to actuators. Proper control elements are necessary to ensure safe and efficient operation of hydraulic and pneumatic systems.

Infinite position valves that regulate fluid flow are also introduced.
Pressure control valves are used in hydraulic systems to control actuator force by regulating system pressure levels. They perform functions like limiting maximum pressure, regulating pressure in circuits, unloading pressure, and assisting sequential operation of actuators. Common types include pressure relief valves, pressure reducing valves, unloading valves, counterbalance valves, and pressure sequence valves. Pressure relief valves protect systems from excess pressure by providing an alternate flow path. Pressure reducing valves maintain reduced pressures in parts of circuits.
This document provides an overview of different types of valves used in fluid power systems. It discusses directional control valves like check valves, two-way valves, and three-way valves. It also covers flow control valves, pressure control valves, and sequence valves. Directional control valves are used to control the direction of flow, while flow control valves regulate flow rate and pressure control valves are used to limit or reduce pressure in the system. Sequence valves control the order of operations in hydraulic circuits.
Directional control valves (DCVs) direct hydraulic fluid flow and are categorized by the number of ports and positions of the internal spool. Common types include 2-way 2-position and 4-way 3-position valves. DCVs are usually actuated electrically via solenoids or hydraulically. Check valves allow fluid flow in one direction only and are used to hold pressure or for safety. Pilot-operated check valves are remotely controlled by a directional valve via a pilot pressure line.

A shuttle valve is a type of valve which allows fluid to flow through it from one of two sources. Generally a shuttle valve is used in pneumatic systems, although sometimes it will be found in hydraulic systems.
Pressure control valves are used to control and regulate pressure in hydraulic systems. The main types are pressure relief valves and pressure regulators. Pressure relief valves are connected to high and low pressure lines and are used to limit the maximum operating pressure. They contain a spring-loaded poppet that opens to allow fluid to return to the tank when pressure reaches a certain threshold determined by a formula. Directional control valves and flow control valves are also used to direct and regulate fluid flow respectively. Check valves only allow fluid flow in one direction to prevent backflow.
Hydraulic control systems have several key components:
1. A prime mover provides mechanical power that is converted by hydraulic pumps into pressurized fluid power.
2. Control valves direct the fluid and regulate parameters like pressure and flow.
3. Actuators convert the fluid power back into mechanical motion or force.
4. Additional components like filters, pipes, and tanks complete the system to precisely control hydraulic powered machines.

The hydraulic power unit (power supply unit) provides the energy required for the hydraulic installation. Its most important components are
The reservoir (tank) , Drive (electric motor), Hydraulic pump, Pressure relief valve , Filter and cooler.
Hydraulic accumulator is an accessory of a hydraulic system.
A hydraulic accumulator is a pressure storage reservoir in which a non-compressible hydraulic fluid is held under pressure by an external source.
The external source can be a spring, a raised weight, or a compressed gas. An accumulator enables a hydraulic system to cope with extremes of demand using a less powerful pump, to respond more quickly to a temporary demand, and to smooth out pulsations. It is a type of energy storage device.
• A pump is the heart of the hydraulic system, convert mechanical energy into hydraulic energy.
• Main purpose of the pump is to create the flow of oil through the system & thus assist transfer of power & motion.
• The combined pumping and driving motor unit is known as hydraulic pump.
• The hydraulic pump takes hydraulic fluid (mostly some oil) from the storage tank and delivers it to the rest of the hydraulic circuit.
• In general, the speed of pump is constant and the pump delivers an equal volume of oil in each revolution.
They have the following primary tasks:
– Power transmission (pressure and motion transmission) – Signal transmission for control
• Secondarytasks:
Lubrication of rotating and translating components to avoid friction and wear
Heat transport, away from the location of heat generation, usually into the reservoir
Transport of particles to the filter
Protection of surfaces from chemical attack, especially corrosion
The study of hydraulics deals with system operated with hydraulic oil media to impart power or to control power.

Condensers and evaporators are basically heat exchangers in which the refrigerant undergoes a phase change. Next to compressors, proper design and selection of condensers and evaporators is very important for satisfactory performance of any refrigeration system.
A throttling device is the generic name of any device or process that simply dissipates pressure energy by irreversibly converting it into thermal energy. Unlike nozzles and diffusers, throttling devices provide no form of useful energy recovery. They merely convert pressure energy into thermal energy through dissipative viscous flow processes. A throttle need not have same inlet and outlet flow velocities, and, therefore, it may have a significant specific kinetic energy changes across it.
A compressor is a mechanical device that increases the pressure of a gas by reducing its volume. An air compressor is a specific type of gas compressor.

Lean Manufacturing (Concepts, Tools and Quality Management)Mohammad Azam Khan
Lean manufacturing began in Japanese manufacturing in the late 1980s and early 1990s. It is most often associated with Toyota. Its basic usefulness is in providing the tools to identify and eliminate waste throughout the manufacturing process, thereby increasing efficiency and profit. Quality improves as production time and cost are reduced. Toyota added an additional element, evenness of work flow, which helps expose inefficiencies in production that allow companies to redesign manufacturing processes for maximum profit.
If we're running two pumps, why aren't we getting twice as much flow? v.17Brian Gongol
A single pump operating at a time is easy to figure out. Adding a second pump (or more) makes things a bit more complicated. That complication can deliver a whole lot of additional flow -- or it can become an exercise in futility.

FINE-TUNING OF SMALL/MEDIUM LLMS FOR BUSINESS QA ON STRUCTURED DATAkevig
Enabling business users to directly query their data sources is a significant advantage for organisations.
The majority of enterprise data is housed within databases, requiring extensive procedures that involve
intermediary layers for reporting and its related customization. The concept of enabling natural language
queries, where a chatbot can interpret user questions into database queries and promptly return results,
holds promise for expediting decision-making and enhancing business responsiveness. This approach
empowers experienced users to swiftly obtain data-driven insights. The integration of Text-to-SQL and
Large Language Model (LLM) capabilities represents a solution to this challenge, offering businesses a
powerful tool for query automation. However, security concerns prevent organizations from granting direct
database access akin to platforms like OpenAI. To address this limitation, this Paper proposes developing
fine-tuned small/medium LLMs tailored to specific domains like retail and supply chain.These models
would be trained on domain-specific questions and Queries that answer these questions based on the
database table structures to ensure efficacy and security. A pilot study is undertaken to bridge this gap by
fine-tuning selected LLMs to handle business-related queries and associated database structures, focusing
on sales and supply chain domains. The research endeavours to experiment with zero-shot and fine-tuning
techniques to identify the optimal model. Notably, a new dataset is curated for fine-tuning, comprising
business-specific questions pertinent to the sales and supply chain sectors. This experimental framework
aims to evaluate the readiness of LLMs to meet the demands for business query automation within these
specific domains. The study contributes to the progression of natural language query processing and
database interaction within the realm of business intelligence applications.
Slides from my talk at MinneAnalytics 2024 - June 7, 2024
https://datatech2024.sched.com/event/1eO0m/time-state-analytics-a-new-paradigm
Across many domains, we see a growing need for complex analytics to track precise metrics at Internet scale to detect issues, identify mitigations, and analyze patterns. Think about delays in airlines (Logistics), food delivery tracking (Apps), detect fraudulent transactions (Fintech), flagging computers for intrusion (Cybersecurity), device health (IoT), and many more.
For instance, at Conviva, our customers want to analyze the buffering that users on some types of devices suffer, when using a specific CDN.
We refer to such problems as Multidimensional Time-State Analytics. Time-State here refers to the stateful context-sensitive analysis over event streams needed to capture metrics of interest, in contrast to simple aggregations. Multidimensional refers to the need to run ad hoc queries to drill down into subpopulations of interest. Furthermore, we need both real-time streaming and offline retrospective analysis capabilities.
In this talk, we will share our experiences to explain why state-of-art systems offer poor abstractions to tackle such workloads and why they suffer from poor cost-performance tradeoffs and significant complexity.
We will also describe Conviva’s architectural and algorithmic efforts to tackle these challenges. We present early evidence on how raising the level of abstraction can reduce developer effort, bugs, and cloud costs by (up to) an order of magnitude, and offer a unified framework to support both streaming and retrospective analysis. We will also discuss how our ideas can be plugged into existing pipelines and how our new ``visual'' abstraction can democratize analytics across many domains and to non-programmers.

• The speed of the actuators needs to be altered as per operational
requirement.For this purpose hydraulic systems use flow control valves.
• These interact with pressure valves to affect the flow rate. They make it
possible to control or regulate the speed of motionof the power
components. Where the flow rate is constant, division of flow must take
place.

• In this type of circuit,the valve is locatedin the pressure line
leading to the work cylinder.
• The flow enteringinto the work cylinder is first controlled
through the valve.
• Meter – in circuit are generallyused when the load characteristicsare
constant & positive.For free reverse flow, generallya check valve is
provided parallel to the flow control valve.
• For example: A hydraulic table feed on a surface grinder would
require controlledrate of travel.

METER – OUT CIRCUIT
54Valves
• In this type of circuits,the flow control valve is installedon the return
side of the cylinder so that it controls the speed of the working cylinder
by monitoringthe discharge flow.
• The meter – out circuit is commonlyused in machine tools that require
precise control of fluid on discharge from the exhaust side of the
cylinder.
• The machine tools like mills and drills often requiredlarge
restrainingforce to prevent excessive pull on the cylinders.

PRESSURE CONTROL VALVES
73Valves
• Oil energy does the work due to pressure in the oil system. In a
mechanical or hydraulic system there may be a need to increase or
decrease the oil pressure depending on the specific requirement.Hence a
group of valves calledpressure control valve have been designed.
75. PRESSURE RELIEF VALVES
75
• Relief valves are generallyspring loaded valves which include a plug
over a discharge port which is liftedagainst an spring force if the
system pressure exceeds a certainvalue. This opens the flow to the
discharge port relieving the pressure.

(INTERNAL PILOT OPERATED
VERSION )
• The pilot operated version enables more accurate control of the
settingand a lower relief settingcan be accommodated

APPLICATION OF PRESSURE
RELIEF VALVE
81Valves
• It can be used
• To relive excessive pressure / to protect pump / other parts
• To limit the system pressure
• As a back pressure valve / counterbalancingvalve
• As a sequence valve

APPLICATION OF
PRESSURE REDUCING VALVE
85Valves
• In oil drivenspot welding guns, the control of the pressure is important
for good welding. In that hydraulic system both welding gun and the
clamp are powered by the same pump/power pack.
• A pressure reducing valve which is placed in between the welding gun and
main pressure,which will regulate the pressure on the spot welding gun.
• The clamp pressure is determinedby the pump relief valve setting.
