    Calculation According To Euler: Piston Rod Selection

    Uploaded by

    balajimettur
    The document discusses piston rod selection for hydraulic cylinders. It provides formulas and variables for calculating the allowable axial pushing force based on the free buckling length. A chart is included that shows combinations of thrust load, rod diameter, and equivalent column length that are recommended for normal applications. The chart can be used to select a suitable piston rod diameter by determining the maximum thrust required, comparing the installation type to diagrams, and finding the diameter corresponding to the thrust load and free buckling length. Two examples of using the chart are provided.

    The force chart shows the allowable axial pushing force F as the function of the free buckling
    length Lk for the existing standard rod diameters. These forces can be calculated using the
    following formulae and variables.

    The piston rod in a cylinder is normally under end cover with the piston rod end unguided
    compressive loads and in certain applications, under
    tensile loads. When it is under compressive loads, the
    piston rod is subjected to buckling stresses. Hence, it is
    L

    sometimes necessary to use an oversize piston rod to


    L

    withstand buckling stresses.


    The following chart shows various combinations of
    thrust load, rod diameter and equivalent column
    L

    length. The values shown are recommended for


    normal applications, but deviations could always be
    made depending on specific applications and
    engineering judgement.
