Radial Clearance between Concentric Springs Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Radial clearance between springs = (Wire Diameter of Outer Spring-Wire Diameter of Inner Spring)/2
c = (d₁-d₂)/2
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Radial clearance between springs - (Measured in Meter) - Radial clearance between springs is the distance between the inner and the outer springs.
Wire Diameter of Outer Spring - (Measured in Meter) - Wire Diameter of Outer Spring is defined as the diameter or the thickness of the outer spring wire.
Wire Diameter of Inner Spring - (Measured in Meter) - The Wire Diameter of Inner Spring is defined as the diameter or the thickness of the inner spring wire.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Wire Diameter of Outer Spring: 6.5 Millimeter --> 0.0065 Meter (Check conversion here)
Wire Diameter of Inner Spring: 5.5 Millimeter --> 0.0055 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

c = (d₁-d₂)/2 --> (0.0065-0.0055)/2

Evaluating ... ...

c = 0.0005

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.0005 Meter -->0.5 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

0.5 Millimeter <-- Radial clearance between springs

Wire Diameter of Outer Spring given Axial Force transmitted by Outer Spring

Go Wire Diameter of Outer Spring = sqrt(Force Transmitted by Outer Spring*Wire Diameter of Inner Spring^2/Force Transmitted by Inner Spring)

Wire Diameter of Inner Spring given Axial Force transmitted by Outer Spring

Go Wire Diameter of Inner Spring = sqrt(Force Transmitted by Inner Spring*Wire Diameter of Outer Spring^2/Force Transmitted by Outer Spring)

Cross-sectional Area of Outer Spring given Axial force transmitted

Go Cross-Sectional Area of Outer Spring = Force Transmitted by Outer Spring*Cross-Sectional Area of Inner Spring/Force Transmitted by Inner Spring

Cross-Sectional Area of Inner Spring given Axial force transmitted

Go Cross-Sectional Area of Inner Spring = Cross-Sectional Area of Outer Spring*Force Transmitted by Inner Spring/Force Transmitted by Outer Spring

Axial Force transmitted by Inner Spring

Go Force Transmitted by Inner Spring = (Wire Diameter of Inner Spring^2*Force Transmitted by Outer Spring)/(Wire Diameter of Outer Spring^2)

Axial Force transmitted by Outer Spring

Go Force Transmitted by Outer Spring = Force Transmitted by Inner Spring*Wire Diameter of Outer Spring^2/Wire Diameter of Inner Spring^2

Radial Clearance between Concentric Springs

Go Radial clearance between springs = (Wire Diameter of Outer Spring-Wire Diameter of Inner Spring)/2

Wire Diameter of Inner Spring given Radial Clearance between Springs

Go Wire Diameter of Inner Spring = Wire Diameter of Outer Spring-2*Radial clearance between springs

Wire Diameter of Outer Spring given Radial Clearance between Springs

Go Wire Diameter of Outer Spring = 2*Radial clearance between springs+Wire Diameter of Inner Spring

Cross-sectional Area of Outer Spring Wire

Go Cross-Sectional Area of Outer Spring = pi*Wire Diameter of Outer Spring^2/4

Cross-sectional Area of Inner Spring Wire

Go Cross-Sectional Area of Inner Spring = pi*Wire Diameter of Inner Spring^2

Radial Clearance between Concentric Springs Formula

Radial clearance between springs = (Wire Diameter of Outer Spring-Wire Diameter of Inner Spring)/2
c = (d₁-d₂)/2

Define Diametrical Clearance?
