Calculation steps:
1. Select the calculation item
air consumption/required air volume (flow rate ) Calculation software
2. Select the type of actuator and the specifications of the trachea
. The number of round trips must be selected accurately. This will be reflected in the subsequent timing diagram. For example, if there are two round trips, the subsequent timing diagram will have two cycles.
After the air consumption/required air volume (flow rate) calculation software is
selected, click the login button below (this login translation is not accurate, it should mean adding), and add the circuit selected above to the calculation result, according to actual needs , 20 loops can be added, and finally calculated together.

4. Calculate the final result.
Maximum required air volume Qmax: Represents the maximum required amount of air in the entire cycle The amount of air required. In the case of no gas tank, select components based on this flow index.
Total air consumption qt: the total amount of air consumed in the entire cycle.
Total cycle time tt: the time when all components are completed.
Average flow Qave: The flow is the total air consumption qt divided by the entire cycle time tt. Qave=qt/tt×60
The minimum supply flow rate necessary for the entire cycle. The necessary supply flow varies according to the allowable pressure drop or the volume of the gas tank.
