Solid Length of Engine Valve Spring given Number of Active Turns of Spring and Wire Diameter Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Solid Length of Valve Spring = (Active Coils in Valve Spring+2)*Wire Diameter of Valve Spring
L = (N+2)*d_w
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Solid Length of Valve Spring - (Measured in Meter) - Solid Length of Valve Spring is defined as the axial length of the spring which is so compressed that the adjacent coils touch each other.
Active Coils in Valve Spring - Active Coils in Valve Spring is the number of coils or turns of a spring that actually contributes to the load-bearing capacity of the valve spring.
Wire Diameter of Valve Spring - (Measured in Meter) - Wire Diameter of Valve Spring is the diameter of the wire of a valve spring, which constitutes the coils of the spring.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Active Coils in Valve Spring: 12 --> No Conversion Required
Wire Diameter of Valve Spring: 5.5 Millimeter --> 0.0055 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

L = (N+2)*d_w --> (12+2)*0.0055

Evaluating ... ...

L = 0.077

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.077 Meter -->77 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

77 Millimeter <-- Solid Length of Valve Spring

(Calculation completed in 00.020 seconds)
