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 Length of crank pin of centre crankshaft for max torque given allowable bearing pressure?
Length of crank pin of centre crankshaft for max torque given allowable bearing pressure calculator uses Length of Crank Pin = (Force on Connecting Rod)/(Diameter of Crank Pin*Bearing Pressure in Crank Pin) to calculate the Length of Crank Pin, Length of crank pin of centre crankshaft for max torque given allowable bearing pressure is the total length of the crank pin in the crankpin-connecting rod bush when the center crankshaft is designed for maximum torsional moment. Length of Crank Pin is denoted by lc symbol.
How to calculate Length of crank pin of centre crankshaft for max torque given allowable bearing pressure using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Length of crank pin of centre crankshaft for max torque given allowable bearing pressure, enter Force on Connecting Rod (Pcr), Diameter of Crank Pin (dc) & Bearing Pressure in Crank Pin (Pb) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Length of crank pin of centre crankshaft for max torque given allowable bearing pressure calculation can be explained with given input values -> 41250 = (19800)/(0.05*9200000).
