Hydraulic Cylinder

A Hydraulic cylinder (also called a linear hydraulic motor) is a mechanical actuator that is used to give a unidirectionalforce through a unidirectional stroke. It has many applications, notably in engineering vehicles.

Formula

Push =sin(angle)*PSI*3.1415*b^2/4 lbs.
pull =sin(angle)*PSI*3.1415*(b²-d²)/4 lbs.

Hydraulic cylinders get their power from pressurized hydraulic fluid, which is typically oil. The hydraulic cylinder consists of a cylinder barrel, in which a piston connected to a piston rod moves back and forth.rod moves back and forth.

Example:
Calculate the Push and Pull of a Hydraulic Cylinder.
Bore of a Cylinder (b) = 5
Pound per Square Inch (PSI)=10
Diameter of a Rod (d) =5
Angle (degrees) = 30

Solution:
Push =sin(angle)*PSI*3.1415*b^2/4 lbs.
= 30*10*3.1415*5*2/4
= 98.00
pull =sin(angle)*PSI*3.1415*(b²-d²)/4 lbs.
= 30*10*3.1415*(5*2-5*2)/4
= 0.00
