In the Master's thesis is presented the process from the initial stage of the project, from the design requirements to the working prototype. During the project duration it was necessary to develop low-pressure reciprocating hydraulic system, which will sustain pressures up to 1 MPa, flow 5 l/min and be able to change direction of fluid at frequency 10 Hz. The first part presents the state of the art and the beginning of the development of the hydraulic system for hydraulic fluid flow control in the desired direction. Evaluated concepts were later analysed in details. In continuation of the thesis are presented working prototypes. On the final prototype measurements and analysis of the fluid pressure drops were made. We measured pressure drop between ports P and A 0,072 MPa and between ports P and B 0,131 MPa. The calculated pressure drop between ports P and A was 0,38 MPa and between ports P and B 0,44 MPa. As a result of the large deviation measured and calculated data, we made another CFD numerical analysis, to determine the distance hydraulic piston made during operation. We have determined that the problem was in the hydraulic piston, which moved only for 1,5 mm from centreline instead of 3 mm as expected. At the end of the thesis we presented guidelines for further development.
