Outside Diameter of Flange using Bolt Diameter Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Outside Flange Diameter = Bolt Circle Diameter+2*Nominal Bolt Diameter+12
D_fo = B+2*d_b+12
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Outside Flange Diameter - (Measured in Millimeter) - The Outside Flange Diameter is defined as the sum of four-times the value diameter of driving shaft and two times the thickness of protecting rim.
Bolt Circle Diameter - (Measured in Millimeter) - Bolt Circle Diameter is the diameter of the circle on which the holes will be evenly distributed.
Nominal Bolt Diameter - (Measured in Millimeter) - Nominal Bolt Diameter is the diameter equal to the external diameter of the threads or the overall diameter of the part.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Bolt Circle Diameter: 4.1 Meter --> 4100 Millimeter (Check conversion here)
Nominal Bolt Diameter: 1.5 Meter --> 1500 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

D_fo = B+2*d_b+12 --> 4100+2*1500+12

Evaluating ... ...

D_fo = 7112

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

7.112 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

7.112 Meter <-- Outside Flange Diameter

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
