The cylinder shown below with a one-inch piston rod is being extended and the flow control valve labelled F1 has a diameter of half inch. What would be the approximate flowrate through the valve. Calculate the HP provided by the prime mover, the HP lost across the valve and the HP delivered to the cylinder. Also, calculate the speed at which the cylinder will extend if the area of the cylinder bore is three times the area of the piston rod. Will the cylinder retract at the same speed if flowrate at the other end of the cylinder is the same, explain why. What should be the approximate size of the reservoir to ensure sufficient oil is always present in the reservoir?

Q1.Calculate the maximum force that the vertical cylinder can generate during extension and retraction based on a system pressure of 500 psi.Q2.Calculate the speed of the vertical cylinder rod during extension based upon the observed flow rate.Q3.How does the calculated speed of the vertical cylinder based upon measured flow rate compare to your measurement of extension time over the stroke length? If different, then why?

Solve step by step please Calculate the coefficient of resistance K for the ball-type check valve placed in a 2-in. Schedule 40 steel pipe if water at 100 ° F is flowing with a velocity of 10ft / s.

For the double acting cylinder shown, what flow sequence will happen when the lever (operator) is pulled away from the valve body?
