Calculation Results

Calculated Value

0.00 N

Calculation Type

Output Force Calculation

Result with Safety Factor

0.00 N

Reverse Reference Value

0.00 MPa


Calculation Explanation

  • Output Force = Effective Area × Pressure × 10 × Efficiency Factor
  • Working Pressure = Output Force ÷ (Effective Area × 10 × Efficiency Factor)
  • 1 MPa = 10 N/cm² conversion factor
  • Result with Safety Factor = Calculated Value × Safety Factor

Enter effective area and pressure/force parameters to calculate

Supports bidirectional calculation: Pressure→Force or Force→Pressure

Formula Reference

Core Formulas


  • Output Force Calculation: F = A × P × 10 × η (N)

  • Pressure Calculation: P = F ÷ (A × 10 × η) (MPa)

  • Safety Force: Fₛ = F × K (N)

Parameter Explanation


  • A: Effective Area (cm²)

  • P: Working Pressure (MPa)

  • η: Efficiency Factor (0.85-0.95)

  • K: Safety Factor (1.5-3)
