Talk:Hydraulic accumulator

message: At the end of the article is this sentence:
"The gas precharge in an accumulator is set so that the separating bladder, diaphragm or piston does not reach or strike either end of the operating cylinder. The design precharge normally ensures that the moving parts do not foul the ends or block fluid passages."
For a bladder style accumulator this is misleading.  While it may be true for desired operational longevity, the bladder can and will contact the fluid port assembly if the fluid pressure is low enough.  Check the various manufacturer's websites.  When rebuilding the accumulator a small amount of pressure is put into the bladder to insure that the anti-extrusion ring and fluid port are seated correctly.  It does this by expanding to fill the entire bladder and pushing down on the fluid port assembly.

message: Doesn't pumped reservoir storage count as a hydraulic accumulator?  (It would be basically a dead weight/raised weight accumulator, except that all of the dead weight is that of the fluid itself.)  Lchiarav 05:25, 3 April 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Pumped Reservoir Storage?

message: I see that a spring type hydraulic accumulator is mentioned. I wonder whether this type of accumulator was ever used. Anyway, I do not know one application. Reason is that the amount of energy that can be stored in a spring driven hydraulic accumulator is negligible. So it is better to delete this item.

thread_title: spring type???

message: I removed the following section as it does not really belong in an encyclopedia. It looks to have come from a user manual or product blurb. It obviously does not apply to all types of accumulator, yet it doen't readily fit with any that are described.
I've left it here for someone more knowledgeable to process appropriately.

:INCORECT STATEMENT An accumulator is placed close to the pump with a non-return valve preventing flow back to it. If a non-return valve were to be placed in the line, how would the accumulator re-charge with fluid?
I reverted the edit, but the comment may have merit.  If someone understands the nature of the objection, feel free to comment on whether any correction of the article if necessary or not, or make the update.  Thanks.  J JMesserly (talk) 18:28, 5 May 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: No, it's a misunderstanding. The system downstream also has a low pressure "exhaust" and that will feed back to the reservoir, from which the pump takes its pickup. Andy Dingley (talk) 18:52, 5 May 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks Andy.  By the way, the open accumulator text is totally plagiarized from the linked site for that section.  I don't have the heart to cut it, because it is important info. What they are doing with that one is getting rid of the bladder and expelling stored compressed air through an air compressor/motor to recover the energy.  That way they can more fully utilize the volume of the cylinder.  I don't buy the order of magnitude claim, especially when you consider the fact that air motors are hardly isothermal.  It might be useful for some applications like a kind of mini CAES thing attached to an air turbine to provide more constant power even when the wind dies a bit.

message: I think this is due to a misunderstanding.  The working fluid is a liquid and is incompressible.  The gas, which is compressible, is merely a means of exerting force, like a spring or a weight. Biscuittin (talk) 11:54, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I was blocked for restoring the fact that liquids are incompressible, by an admin (Jayron32) who seems to think that they aren't and wanted the article left that way. Andy Dingley (talk) 12:07, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Nope, you were blocked for edit warring.  The actual information you were trying to include in the article is inconsequential.  You may have actually been correct (or maybe not, it wasn't a factor in the block).  You were blocked solely for the behavior you were doing, without regard for whether or not any piece of information was correct or not.  --Jayron32 18:05, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
replies: text:  Not even a breach of 3RR, despite expanding the article to try and explain the issue, and despite already raising at AN3 to try and get some other editors involved in the issue. Your response was an immediate block, without even discussion. So I was blocked as a "preventative" measure (that being the basis for blocking). Incidentally leaving the article in the state that "liquids are compressible". Andy Dingley (talk) 20:09, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I never claimed you breached 3RR.  --Jayron32 21:30, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
replies: text:  Did I say that you did? You just blocked me anyway, though it wasn't even a 3RR. Andy Dingley (talk) 23:52, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: There's a thousand things you didn't do, for which I didn't block you.  You were blocked for Edit warring.  If I were you, I wouldn't do that again.  --Jayron32 14:00, 30 August 2013 (UTC)
replies: text:  You expect me to grovel and be grateful because you didn't block me for a thousand things I didn't do? The sheer arrogance of admins remains as staggering as ever. Andy Dingley (talk) 14:26, 30 August 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I've never asked you to grovel.  I've asked you to not edit war.  I have no other expectations.  You're the one who brought up unrelated violations you've never committed, as though it were relevent.  --Jayron32 16:22, 30 August 2013 (UTC)

message: A person knowing few bits of physics can realize that pressurization of an incompressible liquid can’t store mechanical energy. The pressure volume work is determined with \delta W =  P dV \, so what can we see where V = \mathrm{const}? Incnis Mrsi (talk) 12:42, 5 September 2018 (UTC)
