In the September 2010 issue of Hydraulics & Pneumatics, contributing editor, Jack Johnson, gives an in-depth report on using hydrostatic transmission models to determine steady_state performance. As is the case with most of Mr. Johnson's articles, this is an excellent in-depth report on the subject.
We also offer more basic information on hydrostatic transmissions in our Fluid Power Handbook & Directory (FPH&D). Information can be found in our online version of the FPH&D This combination of highly technical information found in the regular issues of H&P and the more basic information found online and in our FPH&D makes our products the most informative fluid power resources available.
