Exhaust Lap Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Exhaust Lap = -Eccentricity or Throw of Eccentric*(sin(Crank Angle+Angle of Advance of the Eccentric))
e = -r*(sin(θ+α))
This formula uses 1 Functions, 4 Variables
Functions Used
sin - Sine is a trigonometric function that describes the ratio of the length of the opposite side of a right triangle to the length of the hypotenuse., sin(Angle)
Variables Used
Exhaust Lap - (Measured in Meter) - Exhaust Lap is the displacement of the valve from its mid-position at release and compression.
Eccentricity or Throw of Eccentric - (Measured in Meter) - Eccentricity or Throw of Eccentric is the extent to which the mantle veers from its axis, so it defines the rate at which the material falls through the chamber.
Crank Angle - (Measured in Radian) - Crank Angle refers to the position of an engine's crankshaft in relation to the piston as it travels inside of the cylinder wall.
Angle of Advance of the Eccentric - (Measured in Radian) - Angle of advance of the eccentric the angle in excess of 90° that a steam-engine valve gear is in advance of the crank.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Eccentricity or Throw of Eccentric: 2.7 Millimeter --> 0.0027 Meter (Check conversion ​here)
Crank Angle: 15.5 Degree --> 0.27052603405907 Radian (Check conversion ​here)
Angle of Advance of the Eccentric: 32.3 Degree --> 0.563741348394062 Radian (Check conversion ​here)
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
e = -r*(sin(θ+α)) --> -0.0027*(sin(0.27052603405907+0.563741348394062))
Evaluating ... ...
e = -0.00200017240997394
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
-0.00200017240997394 Meter -->-2.00017240997394 Millimeter (Check conversion ​here)
FINAL ANSWER
-2.00017240997394 -2.000172 Millimeter <-- Exhaust Lap
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

What is the eccentric throw?

The eccentric throw is the extent to which the mantle veers from its axis, so it defines the rate at which the material falls through the chamber.

How to Calculate Exhaust Lap?

Exhaust Lap calculator uses Exhaust Lap = -Eccentricity or Throw of Eccentric*(sin(Crank Angle+Angle of Advance of the Eccentric)) to calculate the Exhaust Lap, Exhaust Lap formula is defined as the measure of the distance traveled by the valve during the exhaust stroke in a steam engine, which is critical in determining the efficiency of the engine's operation, particularly in reversing gears. Exhaust Lap is denoted by e symbol.
