Angle of Outside Wheel Lock Satisfying Correct Steering Condition Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Angle of Outside Wheel Lock = acot(cot(Angle of Inside Wheel Lock)+Distance between Front Wheel Pivot Center/Wheelbase of Vehicle)
θ_out = acot(cot(θ_in)+c/L)
This formula uses 2 Functions, 4 Variables

Functions Used

cot - Cotangent is a trigonometric function that is defined as the ratio of the adjacent side to the opposite side in a right triangle., cot(Angle)
acot - The ACOT function calculates the arccotangent of a given number which is an angle given in radians from 0 (zero) to pi., acot(Number)

Variables Used

Angle of Outside Wheel Lock - (Measured in Radian) - Angle of Outside Wheel Lock is the maximum angle at which the outside wheel can turn while steering a vehicle without any obstruction or interference.
Angle of Inside Wheel Lock - (Measured in Radian) - Angle of Inside Wheel Lock is the angle at which the inside wheel is locked while steering, affecting the vehicle's turning radius and stability.
Distance between Front Wheel Pivot Center - (Measured in Meter) - Distance between Front Wheel Pivot Center is the length between the pivot point of the front wheel and the center of the steering system.
Wheelbase of Vehicle - (Measured in Meter) - Wheelbase of Vehicle is the distance between the center of the front and rear wheels, affecting the vehicle's stability and steering performance.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Angle of Inside Wheel Lock: 0.75 Radian --> 0.75 Radian No Conversion Required
Distance between Front Wheel Pivot Center: 130 Millimeter --> 0.13 Meter (Check conversion here)
Wheelbase of Vehicle: 2700 Millimeter --> 2.7 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

θ_out = acot(cot(θ_in)+c/L) --> acot(cot(0.75)+0.13/2.7)

Evaluating ... ...

θ_out = 0.728156950496779

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.728156950496779 Radian --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.728156950496779 ≈ 0.728157 Radian <-- Angle of Outside Wheel Lock

What is correct steering angle in vehicle?

Correct steer angles of front wheels are the corresponding steer angles at which perfect steering of all four wheels is achieved while cornering.

What is perfect steering condition?

The perfect steering is achieved when all the four wheels are rolling perfectly under all conditions of running.
While taking turns the condition of perfect roll is satisfied if the axis of the front wheels when produced meet the rear wheel axis at one point. Then this point is the instantaneous center of the vehicle. It is seen that the inside wheel is required to turn through a greater angle than that of the outside wheel. The larger the steering angle the smaller is the turning radius of vehicle.
There is, however, a maximum to which we can go as regards the steering angle of wheels. It has been found that steering angle of the inner wheel can have a maximum value of about 44 degree. Extreme positions on either side are called lock positions. The diameter at their extreme positions is known as turning circle.
For example, in case of Hindustan ambassador car, turning circle radius on right hand lock is 10.83 while on left hand lock it is 10.74 meter.
