Turning radius of outer rear wheel while cornering Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Turning Radius of Outer Rear Wheel = (Wheelbase of Vehicle/tan(Angle of Outside Wheel Lock))+((Track Width of Vehicle-Distance between Front Wheel Pivot Center)/2)
R_OR = (b/tan(φ))+((a_tw-c)/2)
This formula uses 1 Functions, 5 Variables

Functions Used

tan - The tangent of an angle is a trigonometric ratio of the length of the side opposite an angle to the length of the side adjacent to an angle in a right triangle., tan(Angle)

Variables Used

Turning Radius of Outer Rear Wheel - (Measured in Meter) - Turning Radius of Outer Rear Wheel while cornering is the radius of circle traced by outer rear wheel while cornering.
Wheelbase of Vehicle - (Measured in Meter) - Wheelbase of Vehicle is the center distance between the front and the rear axle of the vehicle.
Angle of Outside Wheel Lock - (Measured in Radian) - Angle of Outside Wheel Lock is the angle through which outer wheel of vehicle steers while cornering.
Track Width of Vehicle - (Measured in Meter) - Track Width of Vehicle is the distance between the center line of each of the two wheels on the same axle (front/rear axle).
Distance between Front Wheel Pivot Center - (Measured in Meter) - Distance between Front Wheel Pivot Center is the distance between those points about which both front wheels pivot while cornering.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Wheelbase of Vehicle: 2700 Millimeter --> 2.7 Meter (Check conversion here)
Angle of Outside Wheel Lock: 30 Degree --> 0.5235987755982 Radian (Check conversion here)
Track Width of Vehicle: 1999 Millimeter --> 1.999 Meter (Check conversion here)
Distance between Front Wheel Pivot Center: 1300 Millimeter --> 1.3 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

R_OR = (b/tan(φ))+((a_tw-c)/2) --> (2.7/tan(0.5235987755982))+((1.999-1.3)/2)

Evaluating ... ...

R_OR = 5.02603718043597

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

5.02603718043597 Meter -->5026.03718043597 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

5026.03718043597 ≈ 5026.037 Millimeter <-- Turning Radius of Outer Rear Wheel

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
