Resolution of forces acting on pistons in case of radial piston type hydraulic motor
In hydraulic terms, formula for power (kW) of pump and motor of any type is
kW = QP/600 (Efficiency ignored for simplicity)
Where, Q = Oil flow rate (lit/min)
P= Pressure (bar)
In case of radial piston pump or motor of particular type in which pistons are contained in a rotating cylinder block or rotor, pistons reciprocate radially equal to twice of eccentricity between cylinder block and reactive ring. The hydraulic force under the pistons presses them outward radially against reactive ring. As reaction of this force, piston block rotates due to diverging space between rotor and reactive ring. It means that reciprocating radial force is diverted tangentially to produce torque/rotation. The questions are as follows.
1. How the tangential force acting on the piston, rotor and reactive ring is calculated?
2. Whether the whole or what component of hydraulic radial force of the piston is effective for torque/power of the motor?
3. Regarding torque/power of motor, what is the contribution of value of radius at the point where pistons press against the reactive ring?
4. How the changes in eccentricity affect these calculations apart from variation in
flow rate?

A beam is to be hoisted using two chains. Determine the magnitude of forces FA and FB acting on each chain in other to develop a resultant force T directed along the positive y axis. Given θ1=30 degrees, θ=45degrees, T= 800N

Magnitude and direction of the resultant and equilibrant of the forces acting on the plate. Not sure where to start with this can somebody please help? Thanks Phatone

Hello: I know that the force in a combustion chamber of a gas engine is around 1100 psi. lets say the ratio is 9.0 to 1.
