1. Frictional losses: Energy is lost due to friction between moving parts in the hydraulic system, such as between the fluid and the walls of the pipes or between the piston and cylinder.
2. Heat losses: Energy is lost as heat during the conversion process, as a result of the inefficiency of the hydraulic system in converting hydraulic energy to the desired form.
3. Leakage losses: Energy is lost due to leaks in the hydraulic system, which can occur at connections, seals, or other points in the system where fluid can escape.
4. Inertial losses: Energy is lost due to the inertia of the moving parts in the hydraulic system, such as the mass of the fluid or the components being moved, which can result in energy being dissipated as the system accelerates or decelerates.
