Equation Examples
Some examples of equivalent electrical and hydraulic equations:
| type | hydraulic | electric | thermal | mechanical |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| quantity | volume | charge | heat | momentum |
| potential | pressure | potential | temperature | velocity |
| flux | Volumetric flow rate | current | heat transfer rate | force |
| flux density | velocity | current density | heat flux | stress |
| linear model | Poiseuille's law | Ohm's law | Fourier's law | Dashpot |
If the differential equations have the same form, the response will be similar .

Famous quotes containing the words equation and/or examples:
“A nation fights well in proportion to the amount of men and materials it has. And the other equation is that the individual soldier in that army is a more effective soldier the poorer his standard of living has been in the past.”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
“No rules exist, and examples are simply life-savers answering the appeals of rules making vain attempts to exist.”
