energy storage
A hydro-pneumatic accumulator is a vessel which, in hydraulic circuits, is capable of storing a large amount of energy in a small volume.
a simple principle
If the very low compressibility of fluids makes it difficult to store their energy in small volumes, it does, however, enable them to transfer a significant force. Gas on the other hand is highly compressible, and can therefore store considerable amounts of energy in small volumes.
The hydropneumatic accumulator makes use of these two properties.
