Hydraulic Cylinders - Volume Displacement
Calculate the volumetric displacement of hydraulic cylinders using cylinder area and stroke length.
Hydraulic Cylinders - Volume Displacement
The volume displacement of a hydraulic cylinder is calculated using:
q = A × s / 231
Where:
- q = volume displacement (gal)
- A = cylinder area (in²)
- s = cylinder stroke (in)
Conversion Factors
- 1 gal (US) = 3.785 dm³ (liter) = 3.785×10⁻³ m³
- 1 in² = 6.452 cm²
