Discharge during Retraction Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Discharge = (Area of Piston-Area of Piston Rod)*Velocity of Piston
Q = (Ap-Ar)*vpiston
This formula uses 4 Variables
Variables Used
Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Discharge is the rate of flow of a liquid.
Area of Piston - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area of piston is the value of area of the piston in a piston pump.
Area of Piston Rod - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area of Piston Rod is the value of the area of the rod connected to the piston.
Velocity of Piston - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Velocity of Piston refers to the speed or rate at which the piston moves within a mechanical system, typically in reciprocating or linear motion.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Area of Piston: 0.05 Square Meter --> 0.05 Square Meter No Conversion Required
Area of Piston Rod: 0.025 Square Meter --> 0.025 Square Meter No Conversion Required
Velocity of Piston: 60 Meter per Second --> 60 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
Q = (Ap-Ar)*vpiston --> (0.05-0.025)*60
Evaluating ... ...
Q = 1.5
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
1.5 Cubic Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
1.5 Cubic Meter per Second <-- Discharge

Pressure during Retraction
Go Pressure Exerted by Piston = Force Exerted (Piston)/(Area of Piston-Area of Piston Rod)
Force during Retraction
Go Force Exerted (Piston) = Pressure Exerted by Piston*(Area of Piston-Area of Piston Rod)
Velocity of Piston during Retraction
Go Velocity of Piston = Discharge/(Area of Piston-Area of Piston Rod)
Discharge during Retraction
Go Discharge = (Area of Piston-Area of Piston Rod)*Velocity of Piston
Power Developed during Extension
Go Power Developed during Extension = Force Exerted (Piston)*Velocity of Piston
Area of Piston given Force and Pressure
Go Area of Piston = Force Exerted (Piston)/Pressure Exerted by Piston
Force Exerted onto Piston or by Piston
Go Force Exerted (Piston) = Pressure Exerted by Piston*Area of Piston
Pressure Exerted by Piston
Go Pressure Exerted by Piston = Force Exerted (Piston)/Area of Piston
Velocity of Piston during Extension
Go Velocity of Piston = Discharge/Area of Piston
Discharge during Extension
Go Discharge = Area of Piston*Velocity of Piston

Discharge during Retraction Formula

Discharge = (Area of Piston-Area of Piston Rod)*Velocity of Piston
Q = (Ap-Ar)*vpiston
