Frequently Asked Questions

What does this calculator calculate?

The Subsea Tree Hydraulic Power Allocation Budget Calculator estimates Hydraulic Power Allocation based on the input parameters you provide

Why is maximum actuator force important in this calculation?

maximum actuator force is directly proportional to hydraulic power allocation. When you enter maximum actuator force in N, the calculator uses it in the engineering formula to compute the output

How should I interpret the result hydraulic power allocation?

The calculator outputs hydraulic power allocation in W. For larger power values, divide by 1000 to express the result in kW, or by 745.7 for horsepower. The result is computed directly from the input values using the defined engineering formula

What units should I use for the inputs?

Enter each value in the units shown next to the input field: Maximum Actuator Force (N), Maximum Actuator Stroke Rate (m/s). Make sure all inputs use the specified units for consistent results

What assumptions does this calculator use?

This calculator uses automatically validated engineering formulas. Results are approximate and should be validated against site-specific conditions, applicable codes, and professional engineering judgment
