    This investigation outlines the operating principles of a radial piston hydraulic motor and effects of oil properties on low speed operation. A mathematical model stemming from a basic geometric analysis is constructed to define operating characteristics for torque and flow based on input pressure and speed. While the model is not entirely inclusive on all aspects of efficiency, it does include the necessary information to focus on the piston / bore tribological pair and to make accurate assumptions about the contribution of this specific interface regarding friction and efficiency. A detailed analysis of component free-body diagrams allows for the understanding for force contribution and torque generation for the hydraulic motor. The model proved to be accurate, with direct correlation to test data taken at one revolution per minute at varying pressures. Results included a 0.8% difference between theoretical values for torque generation and approximately an 8% reduction in efficiency as a result of friction between the piston and bore wall.
