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

Force during Retraction Formula

Force Exerted (Piston) = Pressure Exerted by Piston*(Area of Piston-Area of Piston Rod)
F = p*(A_p-A_r)

What are the types of actuators?

Linear actuator: For linear actuation (hydraulic cylinders).
Rotary actuator: For rotary actuation (hydraulic motor).
Semi-rotary actuator: For limited angle of actuation (semi-rotary actuator).
