Weight on Front Axle Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Weight on Front Axle = Total Weight being Distributed of Vehicle-Weight on Rear Axle
W_f = W-W_r
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Weight on Front Axle - (Measured in Kilogram) - Weight on Front Axle is defined as the partial weight acting on the front axle of the vehicle.
Total Weight being Distributed of Vehicle - (Measured in Kilogram) - Total Weight being Distributed of Vehicle is defined as the whole weight of the vehicle that acts on the wheels and axles.
Weight on Rear Axle - (Measured in Kilogram) - Weight on Rear Axle is defined as the total sprung weight of vehicle acting on the rear axle.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Total Weight being Distributed of Vehicle: 10000 Kilogram --> 10000 Kilogram No Conversion Required
Weight on Rear Axle: 5000 Kilogram --> 5000 Kilogram No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

W_f = W-W_r --> 10000-5000

Evaluating ... ...

W_f = 5000

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

5000 Kilogram --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

5000 Kilogram <-- Weight on Front Axle

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

Angular Acceleration of Driven Shaft

Go Angular Acceleration of Driven Shaft = -Angular Velocity of Driven Shaft^2*cos(Angle between Driving and Driven Shafts)*sin(Angle between Driving and Driven Shafts)^2*sin(2*Angle Rotated by Driven Shaft)/((1-cos(Angle Rotated by Driven Shaft)^2*sin(Angle between Driving and Driven Shafts)^2)^2)

Velocity Ratio of Hooke's Joint

Go Velocity Ratio = cos(Angle between Driving and Driven Shafts)/(1-(cos(Angle Rotated by Driving Shaft))^2*(sin(Angle between Driving and Driven Shafts))^2)

Percentage Gradeability of Vehicle

Go Gradeability of Vehicle = (10200*Torque Generated*Overall Gear Reduction)/(Rolling Radius of Loaded Driving Tire*Gross Vehicle Weight)-Percentage Rolling Resistance

Axial Force of Multiplate Clutch using Uniform Wear Theory

Go Total Axial Load = pi*Pressure of Intensity*Inner Diameter of Friction Disc*(Outer Diameter of Friction Disc-Inner Diameter of Friction Disc)*0.5

Aerodynamic Resistance

Go Aerodynamic Resistance of Vehicle = 0.5*Density of Air*Frontal Area of Vehicle*Cruising Speed of Vehicle^2*Coefficient of Drag Exerted by Flow

Drawbar Pull

Go Drawbar Pull = (Torque Generated*Overall Gear Reduction*1000)/Rolling Radius of Loaded Driving Tire-Rolling Resistance at Wheel

Power Required to Propel Vehicle

Go Power required to Propel a Vehicle = (Total Resistance on Vehicle*Speed of Vehicle in Meter per Second)/Transmission Efficiency of Vehicle

Weight on Rear Axle

Go Weight on Rear Axle = (Total Weight being Distributed of Vehicle*CG Distance from Front Axle)/Wheelbase of Vehicle

Total Resistance on Vehicle

Go Total Resistance on Vehicle = Aerodynamic Resistance of Vehicle+Rolling Resistance at Wheel+Gradient Resistance

Effective Gear Ratio

Go Effective Gear Ratio = Old Tire Diameter/New Tire Diameter*Gear Ratio of Transmission

Weight on Front Axle

Go Weight on Front Axle = Total Weight being Distributed of Vehicle-Weight on Rear Axle

Engine Torque

Go Engine Torque = (9.55*Power required to Propel a Vehicle)/Engine Speed in rpm

Gear Step

Go Gear Step = Preceding Lower Gear Ratio Number/Gear Ratio Number

Final Drive Ratio

Go Final Drive Ratio = Rear Gear Ratio*Overdrive Ratio

Weight on Front Axle Formula

Weight on Front Axle = Total Weight being Distributed of Vehicle-Weight on Rear Axle
W_f = W-W_r

What is weight acting on front axle?

Front axle carries the weight of the front part of the automobile as well as facilitates steering and absorbs shocks due to road surface variations. The front axles are generally dead axles that is they are not contributing in the movement of the wheels as the rear axle is responsible for turning the wheels.

How to Calculate Weight on Front Axle?

Weight on Front Axle calculator uses Weight on Front Axle = Total Weight being Distributed of Vehicle-Weight on Rear Axle to calculate the Weight on Front Axle, The Weight on front axle formula is defined as the partial weight acting on the front axle of the vehicle. Weight on Front Axle is denoted by W_f symbol.

How to calculate Weight on Front Axle using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Weight on Front Axle, enter Total Weight being Distributed of Vehicle (W) & Weight on Rear Axle (W_r) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Weight on Front Axle calculation can be explained with given input values -> 5000 = 10000-5000.
