Hydraulic Piston Displacement

Use this hydraulic piston displacement tool when you have measured values for bore mm, stroke mm. It applies a transparent mathematical relationship to those values to return an answer in L. Unlike a prediction or recommendation, this is a calculation from your inputs. Uses bore-side volume and ideal cylindrical geometry. Enter a different scenario to see how this particular quantity changes; check the assumptions before using it in a project.

How to use this calculator

  1. Use exact measurements and consistent units for bore mm, stroke mm.
  2. Enter each quantity; blank, nonnumeric and out-of-range inputs are not accepted.
  3. Compare the reported L quantity against your own data and the limitations below.

Formula for Hydraulic Piston Displacement

L = π*bore_mm*bore_mm*stroke_mm/4000000. Inputs are expressed in the units shown by the labels.

  • This uses a direct fluid relationship and does not retrieve remote data, forecasts or individual account information.
  • Uses bore-side volume and ideal cylindrical geometry.

Worked examples

Worked example — Hydraulic Piston Displacement

Enter Bore mm = 63, Stroke mm = 420.

Apply π*bore_mm*bore_mm*stroke_mm/4000000.

Calculated value: approximately 1.309243 L.

Understanding the result

The example produces about 1.309243 L; this is a mathematical output for the example inputs, not an observed result for your project.

Uses bore-side volume and ideal cylindrical geometry.

Important notes

Uses bore-side volume and ideal cylindrical geometry.

Use values from the same measurement period or physical system. The result is in L and is not a guarantee of capacity, safety, ranking or revenue.
