Problem 01
A double-acting cylinder is hooked up in the regenerative circuit of Figure 1. The
relief valve setting is 105 bars. The piston area is 130 cm2 and the rod area is 65 cm2.
If the pump flow is 0.0016 m3/s, find the cylinder speed and load-carrying capacity
for the
a- Extending stroke
b- Retracting stroke

Problem 02
Which of the following is true for the circuit of Figure 2? Explain your answer.
a. As cylinder 1 extends, cylinder 2 extends.
b. As cylinder 1 extends, cylinder 2 retracts.
c. As cylinder 1 extends, cylinder 2 does not move.

Problem 03

For the system of Figure 3 (for the extension strokes of the cylinders), what pump
pressure is required if the cylinder loads are 22,000 N each and cylinder 1 has a
piston area of 65 cm2?

Problem 04
For the fluid power system shown in Figure 4, determine the external load (F1 and
F2) that each hydraulic cylinder can sustain while moving in the extending direction.
Take frictional pressure losses into account. The pump produces a pressure increase
of 1000 psi from the inlet port to the discharge port and a flow rate of 40 gpm. The
following data are applicable.

Problem 05
Figure 5 shows a regenerative system in which a 25-hp electric motor drives a 90%
efficient pump. Determine the external load F that the hydraulic cylinder can sustain
in the regenerative mode (spring-centered position of the DCV). The pump discharge
pressure is 1000 psi. Take frictional pressure losses into account. The following data
are applicable:
