STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Radial Force at Crank Pin: 13900 Newton --> 13900 Newton No Conversion Required
Inclination of Connecting Rod With Line of Stroke: 15.5939 Degree --> 0.272164898226693 Radian (Check conversion here)
Crank Angle: 30 Degree --> 0.5235987755982 Radian (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

P_cr = (P_r)/(cos(φ+θ)) --> (13900)/(cos(0.272164898226693+0.5235987755982))

Evaluating ... ...

P_cr = 19864.5380573899

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

19864.5380573899 Newton --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

19864.5380573899 ≈ 19864.54 Newton <-- Force on Connecting Rod

What is a Crankpin and its uses?

A Crankpin is a mechanical device in an engine that connects the crankshaft to the connecting rod for each cylinder. It has a cylindrical surface, to allow the crankpin to rotate. The most common configuration is for a crankpin to serve one cylinder.

What is Crankshaft?

A Crankshaft is a shaft driven by a crank mechanism, consisting of a series of cranks and crankpins to which the connecting rods of an engine are attached. It is a mechanical part able to perform a conversion between reciprocating motion and rotational motion. In a reciprocating engine, it translates the reciprocating motion of the piston into rotational motion, whereas in a reciprocating compressor, it converts the rotational motion into reciprocating motion.
