Maximum Width of Top Land Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Width of Top Land = 1.2*Thickness of Piston Head
h1 = 1.2*th
This formula uses 2 Variables
Variables Used
Width of Top Land - (Measured in Meter) - Width of top land is the distance from the top of the piston to the first ring groove.
Thickness of Piston Head - (Measured in Meter) - Thickness of piston head is the thickness of the material used at the head of a piston.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Thickness of Piston Head: 27 Millimeter --> 0.027 Meter (Check conversion here)
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
h1 = 1.2*th --> 1.2*0.027
Evaluating ... ...
h1 = 0.0324
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
0.0324 Meter -->32.4 Millimeter (Check conversion here)
FINAL ANSWER
32.4 Millimeter <-- Width of Top Land
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

11 Piston Rings Calculators

Radial Width of Piston Ring
Go Radial Width of Piston Ring = Diameter of Cylinder Bore*sqrt(3*Allowable Radial Pressure on Piston Ring/Permissible Tensile Stress for Ring)
Length of Ring Section of Piston
Go Length of Ring Section of Piston = Number of Piston Rings*Axial Thickness of Piston Ring+(Number of Piston Rings-1)*Width of Ring Groove
Number of Piston Rings
Go Number of Piston Rings = Diameter of Cylinder Bore/(10*Minimum Axial Thickness of Piston Ring)
Minimum Axial Thickness of Piston Ring given Cylinder Inner Diameter
Go Axial Thickness of Piston Ring = Diameter of Cylinder Bore/(10*Number of Piston Rings)
Minimum Gap between Free Ends of Ring before Assembly
Go Gap between free Ends of Piston Ring = 3.5*Radial Width of Piston Ring
Maximum Gap between Free Ends of Ring after Assembly
Go Gap between free Ends of Piston Ring = 0.004*Diameter of Cylinder Bore
Minimum Gap between Free Ends of Ring after Assembly
Go Gap between free Ends of Piston Ring = 0.002*Diameter of Cylinder Bore
Maximum Gap between Free Ends of Ring before Assembly
Go Gap between free Ends of Piston Ring = 4*Radial Width of Piston Ring
Minimum Axial Thickness of Piston Ring given Radial Width of Ring
Go Axial Thickness of Piston Ring = 0.7*Radial Width of Piston Ring
Minimum Width of Ring Groove
Go Width of Ring Groove = 0.75*Axial Thickness of Piston Ring
Maximum Width of Top Land
Go Width of Top Land = 1.2*Thickness of Piston Head

Maximum Width of Top Land Formula

Width of Top Land = 1.2*Thickness of Piston Head
h1 = 1.2*th

What is top land?

Top land is the annular area around the piston and above the uppermost ring.
In order to protect the piston rings from the thermal load from combustion, the height of the piston top land was introduced. The resulting increased buffer volume between the piston crown and the cylinder wall improves conditions for the rings and allows longer times-between overhauls.

How to Calculate Maximum Width of Top Land?

Maximum Width of Top Land calculator uses Width of Top Land = 1.2*Thickness of Piston Head to calculate the Width of Top Land, Maximum width of top land is the maximum distance between the top of the piston and the first ring groove. Width of Top Land is denoted by h1 symbol.
