Fluid Mechanics LAB: Actuator Constructions and Component Identification

Explore the fundamentals of pneumatic actuators and various fluid control valves, including check valves, foot valves, and butterfly valves, as presented by Prof. Alvarado. Discover how pneumatic actuators utilize compressed air for operation, offering an affordable, simple, and easy-to-maintain solution. Understand the role of check valves in ensuring unidirectional fluid flow, foot valves in sustaining suction lift, and butterfly valves in regulating fluid passage. Learn about the materials used in these components: cast iron, brass, aluminum, steel, and PVC.
