Course Description

In a pneumatic system, compressed air is used to create work. Because compressed air is a gas, it is important to understand how gases behave with changes in pressure, temperature, and volume. There are a few fundamental laws of gases that will help you understand these relationships.

By the end of this course, you will be able to

• Define the three primary states of matter

• Explain how temperature affects the states of matter

• Explain the relationships between the pressure temperature and volume of a gas

• Define pressure

• Define flow

• Describe humidity and how it is measured

• Explain how all of these work together in a pneumatic system
