A double-acting cylinder has a plunger of 10 cm in diameter. The diameter ratio between the plunger and the stem is 5. This cylinder is connected to a compressed air network at the pressure of 2 MPa and performs 15 cycles per minute. Assuming a friction force equal to 10% of the theoretical one, calculate: a) The force exerted by the stem in the advance race and the one exerted in the return race. b) The stroke length if the air flow, measured under normal conditions, is 583 l/min. c) What would be the section of a single-acting cylinder, working with traction, that would provide the same flow?
