The ultimate hydraulic engineering toolkit. Calculate cylinder force, pump flow, pipe pressure drop, and accumulator sizing. Professional tools for fluid power designers.
Force equals Pressure multiplied by Area (F = P x A). For the push stroke, use the full piston area. For the pull stroke, subtract the rod area from the piston area.
The Reynolds Number (Re) is a dimensionless value used to predict whether fluid flow will be laminar (smooth) or turbulent (chaotic), which is critical for calculating pressure drop.
Sizing depends on the required flow (LPM or GPM) and the system pressure. Power (kW) = [Flow (LPM) x Pressure (bar)] / 600. Our tool automates this with efficiency corrections.
