This formula uses 1 Constants, 1 Functions, 4 Variables
Constants Used
pi - Archimedes' constant Value Taken As 3.14159265358979323846264338327950288
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
Core Diameter of Bolt - (Measured in Meter) - Core Diameter of Bolt is defined as the smallest diameter of the thread of the bolt. The term “minor diameter” replaces the term “core diameter” as applied to the thread.
Tensile Force in Bolt - (Measured in Newton) - Tensile Force in Bolt is the stretching force acting on the bolt and generally results in tensile stress and tensile strain in the specimen.
Tensile Yield Strength of Bolt - (Measured in Pascal) - Tensile Yield Strength of Bolt is the stress the bolt can withstand without permanent deformation or a point at which it will no longer return to its original dimensions.
Factor of Safety of Bolted Joint - Factor of Safety of Bolted Joint expresses how much stronger a bolted joint system is than it needs to be for an intended load.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Tensile Force in Bolt: 9990 Newton --> 9990 Newton No Conversion Required
Tensile Yield Strength of Bolt: 265.5 Newton per Square Millimeter --> 265500000 Pascal (Check conversion here)
Factor of Safety of Bolted Joint: 3 --> No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
dc = sqrt(Ptb/(pi/4*Syt/fs)) --> sqrt(9990/(pi/4*265500000/3))
Evaluating ... ...
dc = 0.0119885364509688
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
0.0119885364509688 Meter -->11.9885364509688 Millimeter (Check conversion here)
FINAL ANSWER
11.9885364509688 11.98854 Millimeter <-- Core Diameter of Bolt
