Abstract
In this study, an evaluation equation of energy efficiency of pneumatic driving apparatus is proposed. The evaluation equation is derived from state equation and energy equation of air in a control volume, and, the equation of motion of a moving part of a pneumatic cylinder. As a result, distribution of consumption energy and energy efficiency of pneumatic driving apparatus can be analyzed quantitatively. The effectiveness of the proposed method is proved by a pneumatic cylinder driving apparatus using a meter-out driving method.
