DESIGN CALCULATIONS:
In the design of the crankshafts, it is assumed that
the crankshaft is a beam with two or more supports
Every crankshaft must be designed or checked at
least for two crank positions, one when the bending
moment is maximum, and the other when the
twisting moment is a maximum.
In addition, the additional moments due to the
flywheel weight, belt tension and other forces must be
considered.

Krishnaraja G. Kodancha,Assistant Professor, BVBCET , Hubli
DESIGN CALCULATIONS(Contd..)
To make the calculations simpler, without loosing
accuracy, it is assumed that the effect of the
bending forces does not extend two bearings
between which a force is applied.
There are two considerations, which determine
the necessary dimensions of the crankpin. One is
that its projected bearing area (diameter times
length) must be large enough so it will safely
sustain the bearing loads imposed upon it by gas
pressure, inertia and centrifugal force; 21

Since the bearing 1 and 2 are usually of the same
length and symmetrical to the cylinder centerline,
therefore RH1(F) and RH2 (F) are equal. Hence
normally same dimensions are adopted for both
crank webs.

Crank at angle of maximum Twisting Moment
The twisting moment on the crankshaft will be
maximum, when the tangential force Ft is maximum
and this can be calculated graphically by taking
pressures from the net effort diagram for different
crank angles. The angle usually lies between 250 to
350 from the dead center for a constant volume
combustion engines and between 300 to 400 for
constant pressure combustion engines. At this angle,
the gas pressure will not be maximum. (FIG 3.1/50 in
design data book) 26
