Details about Crankshaft used in Internal combustion Engine
In a multi-cylinder engine more complex engine crankshaft is used while in a small engine simple design is sufficient. The flywheel or crankshaft pulley is mounted on the crank to store the generated energy and to use for further work. A flywheel will also reduce the pulsation characteristic of the four-stroke engine. For the smooth and vibration-free running of the engine, the crankshaft is mounted in Main Bearing. Engine Bearings quantity depends upon various factors like the design of an engine, the number of cylinders, the design of crankshaft, etc. But there are always at least two such bearings, one at the drive end and the other at the non-drive end are used. In general, the crankshaft of a four-cylinder engine has three main journals, four crankpins, four counterweights, and two crank webs. The counterweight reduces the bending load on the crankshaft and also helps the engine not to shake when the crank mechanism is rotating. Crankshaft balancing mostly depends on counterweights.
How to Calculate Bearing pressure at crank pin bush of centre crankshaft for max torque?
Bearing pressure at crank pin bush of centre crankshaft for max torque calculator uses Bearing Pressure in Crank Pin = Force on Connecting Rod/(Diameter of Crank Pin*Length of Crank Pin) to calculate the Bearing Pressure in Crank Pin, Bearing pressure at crank pin bush of centre crankshaft for max torque is the bearing pressure at the crankpin-connecting rod bush when the center crankshaft is designed for maximum torsional moment. Bearing Pressure in Crank Pin is denoted by Pb symbol.
How to calculate Bearing pressure at crank pin bush of centre crankshaft for max torque using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Bearing pressure at crank pin bush of centre crankshaft for max torque, enter Force on Connecting Rod (Pcr), Diameter of Crank Pin (dc) & Length of Crank Pin (lc) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Bearing pressure at crank pin bush of centre crankshaft for max torque calculation can be explained with given input values -> 9.2E-6 = 19800/(0.05*0.043).
