👉 An offset fluid, often found in hydraulic systems, is a type of fluid that is intentionally introduced at an angle or offset from the primary flow path to achieve specific operational advantages. This fluid can be used to reduce friction, improve lubrication, or manage heat dissipation in complex mechanisms. By strategically placing the offset fluid, engineers can optimize system performance, enhance durability, and ensure smoother operation, particularly in applications where precise control and minimal wear are crucial.
