The feed flow or return flow speeds are calculated using the flows of liquid coming from the pump, which fill the stroke volume of the hydraulic cylinder within a certain unit of time.

For the speeds specified above, the following equations result under consideration of the usual units:

v	=	Q Ak	Extension
v	=	Q Ar	Retraction

Please observe that the volume of liquid flowing away during the return flow is always greater than the inflowing liquid due to the difference in area. As a result, the return flow is faster than the feed flow. If the length of the cylinder stroke is known, the stroke time t can be calculated as follows.

t	=	Ak * h Q	Extension
t	=	Ar * h Q	Retraction

The feed flow or return flow speeds are calculated using the flows of liquid coming from the pump, which fill the stroke volume of the hydraulic cylinder within a certain unit of time.

For the speeds specified above, the following equations result under consideration of the usual units:
