Hydraulic

What do we mean by hydraulic?

Of, involving, moved by, or operated by a fluid, especially water, under pressure. adjective

Able to set and harden under water, as Portland cement. adjective

Of or relating to hydraulics. adjective

Pertaining or relating to fluids in motion, or to hydraulics. See hydraulics.

The larger or lifting piston of a hydraulic press.

In mining, to work by the hydraulic-mining process.

Of or pertaining to hydraulics, or to fluids in motion; conveying, or acting by, water. adjective

An accumulator for hydraulic machinery of any kind. See Accumulator, 2. adjective

A cataract. See Cataract, 3. adjective

A cement or mortar made of hydraulic lime, which will harden under water. adjective

A lift operated by the weight or pressure of water. adjective

See under Jack. adjective

Quicklime obtained from hydraulic limestone, and used for cementing under water, etc. adjective

A limestone which contains some clay, and which yields a quicklime that will set, or form a firm, strong mass, under water. adjective

A horizontal pipe containing water at the bottom into which the ends of the pipes from the retorts dip, for passing the gas through water in order to remove ammonia. adjective

A system of mining in which the force of a jet of water is used to wash down a bank of gold-bearing gravel or earth. adjective

A hydrostatic press. See under Hydrostatic. adjective

A device for propelling ships by means of a stream of water ejected under water rearward from the ship. adjective

A machine for raising water by means of the energy of the moving water of which a portion is to be raised. When the rush of water through the main pipe d shuts the valve at a, the momentum of the current thus suddenly checked forces part of it into the air chamber b, and up the pipe c, its return being prevented by a valve at the entrance to the air chamber, while the dropping of the valve a by its own weight allows another rush through the main pipe, and so on alternately. adjective

An inverted cup with a partition dipping into water, for opening or closing communication between two gas mains, the open ends of which protrude about the water. adjective

To mine using the technique of hydraulic mining.
