Total Axial Gap between Coils of Spring Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Total Axial Gap between Coils of Springs = (Total Number of Coils-1)*Axial Gap between Adjacent Coils Bearing Max Load
G_A = (N_t-1)*G_m
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Total Axial Gap between Coils of Springs - (Measured in Meter) - Total Axial Gap between Coils of Springs is the summation of axial gap between two adjacent coils.
Total Number of Coils - Total Number of Coils in spring is the total number of turns made by wire along its length.
Axial Gap between Adjacent Coils Bearing Max Load - (Measured in Meter) - Axial gap between adjacent coils bearing max load is the minimum distance between two adjacent coils along vertical axis of spring to prevent clashing of coils.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Total Number of Coils: 12 --> No Conversion Required
Axial Gap between Adjacent Coils Bearing Max Load: 18 Millimeter --> 0.018 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

What is total axial gap between coils of springs?

When the spring is subjected to maximum force, there should be some gap or clearance between the adjacent coils. The gap is essential to prevent clashing of the coils. The clashing allowance or the total axial gap is usually taken as 15% of the maximum deflection. Sometimes, an arbitrary decision is taken and it is assumed that there is a gap of 1 or 2 mm between adjacent coils under maximum load condition.

How to Calculate Total Axial Gap between Coils of Spring?

Total Axial Gap between Coils of Spring calculator uses Total Axial Gap between Coils of Springs = (Total Number of Coils-1)*Axial Gap between Adjacent Coils Bearing Max Load to calculate the Total Axial Gap between Coils of Springs, The Total axial gap between coils of spring is the summation of axial gap between two adjacent coils subjected to maximum force to avoid clashing of coils. Total Axial Gap between Coils of Springs is denoted by G_A symbol.

How to calculate Total Axial Gap between Coils of Spring using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Total Axial Gap between Coils of Spring, enter Total Number of Coils (N_t) & Axial Gap between Adjacent Coils Bearing Max Load (G_m) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Total Axial Gap between Coils of Spring calculation can be explained with given input values -> 198000 = (12-1)*0.018.
