An engineering student has been given the assignment of designing a
hydraulic holding system for a hay baling system. The system has four
cylinders with 120mm diameter pistons with a stroke of 0.320m. the lines
connecting the system are 1 cm in id (inside diameter). There are 15.5
m of lines in the system. For proper design the reserve tank should
hold a minimum of 50% more than the amount of hydraulic fluid in the
system. If the diameter of the reserve tank is 30.48 cm, what is the
shortest height it should be?

First, you need to convert all measurements to SI units.
Then find the total volume of the system.
Add the displacement volume of the pistons and the lines.
Then figure out the volume that the reserve tank should be.
Then solve for the height of the tank.

You'll need the formula for the volume of a cylinder. (I'm pretty sure you already know that, given the nature of the problem you're working on.) Approximate the hoses as cylinders, where the diameter of the hose is the base of the cylinder, and the length of the hose is its height.

whilst i replace into at college, open channel bypass problems have been so complicated that I programmed my HP-11 with a numerical approach to be waiting to remedy them. those equations can effect in fractional exponents that are particularly are particularly solved with numerical procedures.
