Thickness of Valve Disk Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Thickness of Valve Disk = Material Constant*Diameter of Port*sqrt(Maximum Gas Pressure inside Cylinder/Bending Stress in Valve Disk)
t = k_c*d_p*sqrt(p_max/σ_bd)
This formula uses 1 Functions, 5 Variables

Functions Used

sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

Thickness of Valve Disk - (Measured in Meter) - Thickness of Valve Disk is the thickness of the circular valve disk of a valve and is the part of valve head.
Material Constant - Material Constant is the constant value for the material used in a particular formula.
Diameter of Port - (Measured in Meter) - Diameter of Port is the diameter of the opening of the port of an IC Engine.
Maximum Gas Pressure inside Cylinder - (Measured in Pascal) - Maximum gas pressure inside cylinder is the maximum amount of pressure that can be generated inside the cylinder.
Bending Stress in Valve Disk - (Measured in Pascal) - Bending Stress in Valve Disk is the amount of bending stress that can be generated in a material before its failure or fracture.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Material Constant: 0.5 --> No Conversion Required
Diameter of Port: 40 Millimeter --> 0.04 Meter (Check conversion here)
Maximum Gas Pressure inside Cylinder: 4 Megapascal --> 4000000 Pascal (Check conversion here)
Bending Stress in Valve Disk: 52 Newton per Square Millimeter --> 52000000 Pascal (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

t = k_c*d_p*sqrt(p_max/σ_bd) --> 0.5*0.04*sqrt(4000000/52000000)

Evaluating ... ...

t = 0.00554700196225229

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.00554700196225229 Meter -->5.54700196225229 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

5.54700196225229 ≈ 5.547002 Millimeter <-- Thickness of Valve Disk
