The pump draws oil with specific gravity of 0.90 from a reservoir and delivers it to the hydraulic cylinder. The cylinder has an inside diameter of 5.0 inch and in 15 seconds the piston must travel 20 inches while exerting a force of 11,000 lb. It is estimated that there are energy losses of 11.5 lb-ft/lb in the suction pipe and 35.0 lb-ft/lb in the discharge pipe.
