How to Calculate Stiffness of Helical Spring?
Stiffness of Helical Spring calculator uses Stiffness of Helical Spring = (Modulus of Rigidity of Spring*Diameter of Spring Wire^4)/(64*Mean Radius Spring Coil^3*Number of Coils) to calculate the Stiffness of Helical Spring, The Stiffness of helical spring formula is a measure of the spring's stiffness. When a spring is stretched or compressed, so that its length changes by an amount x from its equilibrium length, then it exerts a force F = -kx in a direction towards its equilibrium position. Stiffness of Helical Spring is denoted by k symbol.
How to calculate Stiffness of Helical Spring using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Stiffness of Helical Spring, enter Modulus of Rigidity of Spring (G), Diameter of Spring Wire (d), Mean Radius Spring Coil (R) & Number of Coils (N) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Stiffness of Helical Spring calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.123596 = (4000000*0.026^4)/(64*0.32^3*2).
