👉 A compressed fluid, also known as a compressed gas or pressurized fluid, is a type of fluid where the pressure is significantly higher than atmospheric pressure, causing the fluid to be stored in a sealed container under high pressure. This compression increases the density of the fluid, allowing it to store more energy per unit volume compared to its uncompressed state. Common examples include hydraulic fluids used in machinery, where the high pressure enables efficient power transmission and lubrication. Compressed fluids are crucial in various applications, from automotive systems to industrial machinery, due to their ability to perform under extreme conditions while maintaining stability and functionality.
