Fluids are practically incompressible and can therefore not be directly used for energy storage. Hydraulic accumulators make storing fluids under pressure possible. Their operating principle is based on the  Boyle-Mariotte's law (P x V = constant) and the compressibility difference between fluids and gases.

This allows:

• storage and, on demand, release of the energy transmitted by the fluid
• maintaining a required pressure for a certain period of time
• hydraulic compensations of big masses
• absorbing excess energy (water hammers, etc.)
• smoothening irregular pulsating fluid flows
• buffering shocks (vehicles, lifting systems, etc.)
• pressure compensations in case of thermal loading.
