I understand how to get the load, pressure from a hydraulic system with one slave and one master cylinder. Though I don‘t know what happens when there is one master cylinder and 2 or more slave cylinders?For example: A force of 100N is applied on a master cylinder of diameter 50mm and it moves 10mm, what is the load and the distance moved by two slave cylinder with diameter 20mm?
I would suggest doing a test run, and try to wash the peices, and see if the paint flakes off, and how easily also, did you paint the INSIDE of the mugs? cause you dont' need paint flaking off if you put a hot or cold liquid in it. My experience, tempra paint is better on paper. not to sure on ceramics.
Hydraulic fluid is incompressible, meaning it's volume does not change. So the stroke of the master times its area (the volume displaced) has to be shared by the two slaves. How much each moves depends on the back load. But suppose the two slaves each move the same amount, then they will each move half the volume of the master. Their areas are four times, so they will each move 1/8 as far as the master. The pressure in the system is constant so each slave will produce a force four times the force applied to the master (because each has an area of 4 times the master).
