Distance Between Bearing 2&3 of Centre Crankshaft - (Measured in Meter) - Distance Between Bearing 2&3 of Centre Crankshaft is the distance between the 1st and 2nd bearing of a centre crankshaft.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Belt Tension in Tight Side: 750 Newton --> 750 Newton No Conversion Required
Belt Tension in Loose Side: 260 Newton --> 260 Newton No Conversion Required
Centre Crankshaft Bearing3 Gap from Flywheel: 200 Millimeter --> 0.2 Meter (Check conversion here)
Distance Between Bearing 2&3 of Centre Crankshaft: 219.5 Millimeter --> 0.2195 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

R_h2 = (P₁+P₂)*c₂/c₁ --> (750+260)*0.2/0.2195

Evaluating ... ...

R_h2 = 920.273348519362

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

920.273348519362 Newton --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

920.273348519362 ≈ 920.2733 Newton <-- Horizontal Reaction at Bearing 2 by Belt Tension

Types of Crank Shaft

There are two types of crankshafts—side crankshaft and center crankshaft. The side crankshaft is also called the ‘overhung’ crankshaft. It has only one crank web and requires only two bearings for support. It is used in medium-size engines and large-size horizontal engines. The center crankshaft has two webs and three bearings for support. It is used in radial aircraft engines, stationary engines, and marine engines. It is more popular in automotive engines. Crankshafts are also classified as single-throw and multi-throw crankshafts depending upon the number of crankpins used in the assembly. Crankshafts used in multi-cylinder engines have more than one crank pin. They are called multi-throw crankshafts.

Design of Centre Crankshaft

A crankshaft is subjected to bending and torsional moments due to the following three forces:
(i) Force exerted by the connecting rod on the crank pin.
(ii) Weight of flywheel acting downward in the vertical direction.
(iii) Resultant belt tensions acting in the horizontal direction.
In the design of the center crankshaft, two cases of the crank, positions are considered. They are as follows:
Case I: The crank is at the top dead center position and subjected to maximum bending moment and no torsional moment.
Case II: The crank is at an angle with the line of dead center positions and subjected to maximum torsional moment.
