This formula uses 6 Variables

Variables Used

Wire Diameter of Valve Spring - (Measured in Meter) - Wire Diameter of Valve Spring is the diameter of the wire of a valve spring, which constitutes the coils of the spring.
Axial Force on Valve Spring - (Measured in Newton) - Axial Force on Valve Spring is the force acting at the ends of spring trying to compress or expand it in the axial direction.
Active Coils in Valve Spring - Active Coils in Valve Spring is the number of coils or turns of a spring that actually contributes to the load-bearing capacity of the valve spring.
Mean Coil Diameter of Valve Spring - (Measured in Meter) - Mean Coil Diameter of Valve Spring is defined as the average of the inner and the outer diameters of the spring of an engine valve.
Modulus of Rigidity of Valve Spring - (Measured in Pascal) - Modulus of Rigidity of Valve Spring is the elastic coefficient when a shear force is applied resulting in lateral deformation. It gives us a measure of how rigid a body is.
Maximum Compression in Valve Spring - (Measured in Meter) - Maximum Compression in Valve Spring is the maximum amount of axial deflection in the valve spring.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Axial Force on Valve Spring: 340 Newton --> 340 Newton No Conversion Required
Active Coils in Valve Spring: 12 --> No Conversion Required
Mean Coil Diameter of Valve Spring: 46 Millimeter --> 0.046 Meter (Check conversion here)
Modulus of Rigidity of Valve Spring: 98900 Newton per Square Millimeter --> 98900000000 Pascal (Check conversion here)
Maximum Compression in Valve Spring: 34.8 Millimeter --> 0.0348 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

d_w = ((8*P*N*D^3)/(G*x))^(1/4) --> ((8*340*12*0.046^3)/(98900000000*0.0348))^(1/4)

Evaluating ... ...

d_w = 0.00551203577204342

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.00551203577204342 Meter -->5.51203577204342 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

5.51203577204342 ≈ 5.512036 Millimeter <-- Wire Diameter of Valve Spring
