Pivot Centre given Turning Radius of Outer Front Wheel Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Distance between Front Wheel Pivot Center = Track Width of Vehicle-2*(-Wheelbase of Vehicle/sin(Angle of Outside Wheel Lock)+Turning Radius of Outer Front Wheel)
c = a_tw-2*(-b/sin(φ)+R_of)
This formula uses 1 Functions, 5 Variables

Functions Used

sin - Sine is a trigonometric function that describes the ratio of the length of the opposite side of a right triangle to the length of the hypotenuse., sin(Angle)

Variables Used

Distance between Front Wheel Pivot Center - (Measured in Meter) - Distance between Front Wheel Pivot Center is the distance between those points about which both front wheels pivot while cornering.
Track Width of Vehicle - (Measured in Meter) - Track Width of Vehicle is the distance between the center line of each of the two wheels on the same axle (front/rear axle).
Wheelbase of Vehicle - (Measured in Meter) - Wheelbase of Vehicle is the center distance between the front and the rear axle of the vehicle.
Angle of Outside Wheel Lock - (Measured in Radian) - Angle of Outside Wheel Lock is the angle through which outer wheel of vehicle steers while cornering.
Turning Radius of Outer Front Wheel - (Measured in Meter) - Turning Radius of Outer Front Wheel while cornering is the radius of circle traced by outer front wheel while cornering.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Track Width of Vehicle: 1999 Millimeter --> 1.999 Meter (Check conversion here)
Wheelbase of Vehicle: 2700 Millimeter --> 2.7 Meter (Check conversion here)
Angle of Outside Wheel Lock: 30 Degree --> 0.5235987755982 Radian (Check conversion here)
Turning Radius of Outer Front Wheel: 5110 Millimeter --> 5.11 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

c = a_tw-2*(-b/sin(φ)+R_of) --> 1.999-2*(-2.7/sin(0.5235987755982)+5.11)

Evaluating ... ...

c = 2.579

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

2.579 Meter -->2579 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

2579 Millimeter <-- Distance between Front Wheel Pivot Center

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
