Number of Full Length Leaves given Initial Pre-load Required to Close Gap Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Number of Full length Leaves = (2*Number of Graduated Length Leaves*Total Number of Leaves*Pre Load for Leaf Spring)/(2*Number of Graduated Length Leaves*Force Applied at End of Leaf Spring-3*Pre Load for Leaf Spring*Total Number of Leaves)
n_f = (2*n_g*n*P_i)/(2*n_g*P-3*P_i*n)
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Number of Full length Leaves - Number of Full length Leaves is defined as the total number of extra full length leaves present in a multi-leaf spring.
Number of Graduated Length Leaves - Number of Graduated Length Leaves is defined as the number of graduated-length leaves including master leaf.
Total Number of Leaves - Total Number of Leaves is defined as the sum of graduated length leaves and extra full length leaves.
Pre Load for Leaf Spring - (Measured in Newton) - Pre load for leaf spring is defined as the force that is required to be maintained between the leaves of a multi-leaf spring to close the gap.
Force Applied at End of Leaf Spring - (Measured in Newton) - Force Applied at End of Leaf Spring is defined as the net amount of force that is acting onto the spring.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Number of Graduated Length Leaves: 15 --> No Conversion Required
Total Number of Leaves: 18 --> No Conversion Required
Pre Load for Leaf Spring: 4800 Newton --> 4800 Newton No Conversion Required
Force Applied at End of Leaf Spring: 37500 Newton --> 37500 Newton No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

n_f = (2*n_g*n*P_i)/(2*n_g*P-3*P_i*n) --> (2*15*18*4800)/(2*15*37500-3*4800*18)

Evaluating ... ...

n_f = 2.99376299376299

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

2.99376299376299 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

2.99376299376299 ≈ 2.993763 <-- Number of Full length Leaves

Length of Cantilever given Initial Nip of Leaf Spring

LaTeX Go Length of Cantilever of Leaf Spring = (Nip in Leaf Spring*(Modulus of Elasticity of Spring*Total Number of Leaves*Width of Leaf*Thickness of Leaf^3)/(2*Force Applied at End of Leaf Spring))^(1/3)

Force Applied at End of Spring

LaTeX Go Force Applied at End of Leaf Spring = Nip in Leaf Spring*(Modulus of Elasticity of Spring*Total Number of Leaves*Width of Leaf*(Thickness of Leaf^3))/(2*(Length of Cantilever of Leaf Spring^3))

Modulus of Elasticity given Initial Nip of Spring

LaTeX Go Modulus of Elasticity of Spring = 2*Force Applied at End of Leaf Spring*Length of Cantilever of Leaf Spring^3/(Nip in Leaf Spring*Total Number of Leaves*Width of Leaf*Thickness of Leaf^3)

Initial Nip in Leaf Spring

LaTeX Go Nip in Leaf Spring = 2*Force Applied at End of Leaf Spring*Length of Cantilever of Leaf Spring^3/(Modulus of Elasticity of Spring*Total Number of Leaves*Width of Leaf*Thickness of Leaf^3)

Define Nip of the Spring?

The initial gap C between the extra full-length leaf and the graduated-length leaf before the assembly is called a ‘nip’. Such pre-stressing, achieved by a difference in radii of curvature, is known as ‘nipping’. Nipping is common in automobile suspension springs.
