SAQ20<br />

(a)<br />

Viscosity increases as the temperature falls. This makes the<br />

oil "thicker" and tends to cause sluggish operation of<br />

components.<br />

(b)<br />

Viscosity decreases as the temperature rises. This makes<br />

the oil "thinner" which(reduces the lubrication film between<br />

any rubbing surfaces. It may also cause increased leakage<br />

past a seal or a spool valve.<br />

SAQ21<br />

A reduction in volume flow in a radial pump is obtained by<br />

moving the centre lines of the reaction ring and the cylinder block<br />

closer together. In the type of pump shown in Figure 48 this<br />

would be done by moving the reaction ring to the left, and this<br />

would reduce the length of the effective stroke of each piston.<br />

SAQ22<br />

Gear pumpf Vane pump, Piston pump<br />

SAQ23<br />

You should first have looked in Table 4 on page 85 and you will<br />

see that excessive noise from the motor means that it is worn or<br />

damaged. If you then look in Table 5 you will see that excessive<br />

heat can also indicate a worn or damaged motor.<br />

So your answer should be: 'probably a worn or a damaged<br />

motor'.<br />
