Abstract

In various devices of hydraulic drive and hydraulic automation systems, elements with a conical flow path are used - conical confusers and diffusers.The cross-sectional dimensions of such elements are typically relatively small, and the fluid (mineral oil) moving through them has a high viscosity. Therefore, despite the relatively high fluid flow velocity, the Reynolds Re numbers in conical elements can be low.
