Hydraulics is a science which deals with mechanical properties of the liquid. It is basically a liquid form of pneumatics. In pneumatics, we use compressed air and in hydraulics, we use the compressed liquid. When we compress the liquid, it gets pressurized and It uses the power of pressurized liquid for doing various tasks. It works on the principle of Pascal Law which states that when there is an increase in pressure at any point in a confined fluid, there is an equal increase at every other point in the container.
You can find hydraulic machines from your backyard to a big construction site.
Concept:
It works on a very simple concept that when the force applied to incompressible liquid at one point, it gets transmitted and multiplied at another point. The multiplication factor of this force depends upon the area of the piston.
