(5.2.1)

Plunger Diameter = 93 mm

Radius of the 93/2 = 46.5 mm = 0.0465 m.

Diameter of the Ram = 400 mm.

Radius of the Ram = 400 / 2 = 200 mm = 0.2 m.

Stroke Length = 154 mm = 0.154 m

Slip percentage = 1%

Area of the Plunger = πr² = π(0.0465)² = 6.7929 * 10^-3 m²

Area of the Ram = πr² = π(0.2)² = 0.1256 m²

Volume of the Plunger = Area of the Plunger * Stroke length

Volume of the Plunger per stroke = 6.7929 * 10^-3 * 0.154

Volume of the Plunger per stroke = 1.0461 * 10^-3 m³.

Volume of the Ram per stroke = Volume of the Plunger * ((100 - 1) / 100)

Volume of the Ram per stroke = 1.0461 * 10^-3 * 0.99

Volume of the Ram per stroke = 1.0356 * 10^-3 m³.

(5.2.2)

Plunger Diameter = 93 mm

Radius of the 93/2 = 46.5 mm = 0.0465 m.

Diameter of the Ram = 400 mm.

Radius of the Ram = 400 / 2 = 200 mm = 0.2 m.

Stroke Length = 154 mm = 0.154 m

Slip percentage = 1%

Area of the Plunger = πr² = π(0.0465)² = 6.7929 * 10^-3 m²

Area of the Ram = πr² = π(0.2)² = 0.1256 m²

Volume of the Plunger = Area of the Plunger * Stroke length

Volume of the Plunger per stroke = 6.7929 * 10^-3 * 0.154

Volume of the Plunger per stroke = 1.0461 * 10^-3 m³.

Volume of the Ram per stroke = Volume of the Plunger * ((100 - 1) / 100)

Volume of the Ram per stroke = 1.0461 * 10^-3 * 0.99

Volume of the Ram per stroke = 1.0356 * 10^-3 m³.

Volume of the Ram for 10 pumping stroke = 1.0356 * 10^-3 * 10

Volume of the Ram for 10 pumping stroke = 0.010356 m³.

We know that Volume of the Ram = Area of the Ram * Distance travelled by ram

Therefore

Let x be the distance travelled by the ram.

Area of the Ram * Distance travelled by ram = 0.010356 m³

0.1256 * x = 0.01035

x = 0.0824 m.

Therefore distance moved by 10 pumping strokes = 0.0824 m.

(5.4.1)

Diameter of the Accumulator = 450 mm.

Radius of the Ram = (450/2) = 225 mm =0.225 m.

Mass of the load = 13 tonnes = 13000 kg.

Force applied on the accumulator = mg

Force applied on the accumulator = 13000 * 9.8

Force applied on the accumulator = 127400 N

Area of the Ram = πr²

A = π(0.225)r²

A = 0.1590 m².

Pressure on the Ram = Force / Area

Pressure on the Ram = 127400 / 0.1590

Pressure on the Ram = 801040 Pa

Pressure on the Ram = 801.04 kPa.

Therefore Pressure on the Fluid is 801.04 kPa.

(5.4.2)

Diameter of the Accumulator = 450 mm.

Radius of the Ram = (450/2) = 225 mm =0.225 m.

Mass of the load = 13 tonnes = 13000 kg.

Distance travelled by ram = 3 mt.

Force applied on the accumulator = mg

Force applied on the accumulator = 13000 * 9.8

Force applied on the accumulator = 127400 N

Area of the Ram = πr²

A = π(0.225)r²

A = 0.1590 m².

Pressure on the Ram = Force / Area

Pressure on the Ram = 127400 / 0.1590

Pressure on the Ram = 801040 Pa

Pressure on the Ram = 801.04 kPa.

Therefore Pressure on the Fluid is 801.04 kPa.

Volume of the Ram = Area of the ram * Distance moved by the ram

Volume of the Ram = 0.1590 * 3

Volume of the Ram = 0.477 m³.

Energy Stored by the ram = Pressure * Volume

Energy Stored by the ram = 801040 * 0.477

Energy Stored by the ram = 382096.08 Joules

Energy Stored by the ram = 382.096 kJ.

The Energy stored is 382.096 kJ.

(5.3.1)

Force on the Plunger = 35kN.

Work done during delivering stroke = 7.2 kJ.

Diameter of the Plunger = 270 mm.

Radius of the plunger = (270/2) = 135 mm = 0.135 mm.

Area of the Plunger = πr² = π(0.135)²

a = 0.05725 m²

Pressure on the Plunger = Force / Area

Pressure on the Plunger = 35000 / 0.05725

Pressure on the Plunger = 611294.7 Pa

Pressure on the Plunger = 611.294 kPa

Work done during delivering a stroke = Pressure * Volume

Volume = Work done during delivery stroke / Pressure

Volume = 7200 / 611294.7

Volume = 0.01178 m³

Volume of the Liquid Displaced = Area of the Plunger * Stroke length.

Stroke length = (Volume of the Liquid Displaced) / Area of the Plunger

Stroke length = 0.01178 / 0.05725

Stroke length = 0.205 m

Stroke length = 205 mm

Therefore the stroke length is 205 mm.

Pressure on the Plunger = 611.294 kPa

We know that Pressure on Plunger = Pressure on the Ram

Pressure on the Ram = 611.294 kPa

Therefore the pressure during delivery stroke is 611.294 kPa.

Volume = 0.01178 m³

We know that Volume of the Plunger = Volume of the Ram when no slip is present

Volume of the Liquid displaced during delivery stroke = 0.01178 m³.
