If I have an 6061-t6 aluminum cylinder that is 11.38"ID x 54" long, I should have a volume of 5493in3. If I apply 100 psi of compresses air what is the pressure inside the tube?....100psi? Sounds easy but I'm having a brain fart! If not 100psi, how much and how is it figured? Thanks. |

If you connect the air compressor hose to the cylinder, and it have no leaks, and air flow is constant just and no more or less than 100 PSI.

Homework? A hint - how much supply air at 100 psi do you have available? |

could be either way but I'll say no, the compressor would not be pumping at the time the air is let into the cylinder |

It makes a big difference. Which is it? You never answered the first question - homework? |
