Perspective directions of development of experimental base for tests the hydraulic drives of navigable hydrotechnical facilities

The article discusses the design, manufacturing and operational features of the hydraulic drive of navigable hydraulic structures (including geometric and mass parameters of the hydraulic drive, unit production, final Assembly and debugging of the hydraulic drive, the operating conditions, etc.), their static and dynamic characteristics. Presents modern methods of control, using modern experimental base. Described innovative device designed to simulate the external loads during testing of hydraulic drive elements, simulate changes in the parameters of the working fluid in the test elements of the hydraulic drive.
