Reliability, Maintainability, and Performance Issues in Hydraulic System Design

Abstract

The program objective was to compare an Advanced Conventional Pressure (ACP) 3000-psi helicopter hydraulic system to a Very High Pressure (VHP) 8000-psi system in terms of benefits, drawbacks, and development requirements. The work included the assessment of the state of the art of helicopter hydraulic systems, the development of an evaluation methodology, and the selection of a helicopter to serve as a baseline and as a vehicle for the ACP and VHP designs.
