Problem Description Analyzing the performance of a linear hydraulic systems involves repetitive mathematical calculations. This spreadsheet template was designed to: – Provide accurate results – Automate calculations – Be easy to use – Be usable by persons with limited knowledge of hydraulics
3
Input Data – User Specified Cylinder bore (in.) Cylinder stroke (in.) Cylinder rod diameter (in.) Maximum system working pressure (psi) Pump flow rate (gpm @ max. pressure)
4
Output – Calculated by Formulas and Functions Max. extension force (lbs.) Max. retraction force (lbs.) Extension time (sec.) Retraction time (sec.) Cycle time (sec) Maximum power output (Fhp)
