Formula and methodology
Formula: F = PA; A = πd²/4.
The calculator converts pressure to pascals, forms the circular piston area, and returns the ideal perpendicular force.
This result follows the calculator's declared inputs, precision, validation boundaries, and model limits.
Input contract
- Net pressure — kPa; minimum 0; maximum 1000000000
- Piston diameter — mm; minimum 1.0E-6; maximum 1000000
Worked example
| Input | Value |
|---|---|
| Net pressure | 700 |
| Piston diameter | 50 |
Ideal piston force is about 1,374.4 N, or 1.374 kN.
Assumptions and limits
- Pressure is a net pressure difference across the piston and diameter describes a circular active face.
- The piston is centered and sealed; friction, rod-side area, leakage, acceleration, pressure losses, and structural limits are not modeled.
- The output is an ideal force estimate, not a cylinder rating or lifting authorization.
