    CRANK CONNECTING ROD RATIO Introduction The crank-connecting rod is the mechanism that converts the up-and-down motion

    of the piston into the rotating motion of the crankshaft. The parts of this mechanism are the connecting rod and the crankshaft. The connecting rod length is the distance between the center of the large and small openings of the connecting rod. The crank length is the distance between the center of the large opening of the connecting rod and the center of the crankshaft.

    1. Parts of the crank-connecting rod mechanism.

    2.

    What is meant by the connecting rod length? a. b. c. d. The total length of the connecting rod The combined length of the connecting rod and the crank. The distance between the center of the large and small openings of the connecting rod. The distance between the center of the crankshaft and the large opening of the connecting rod.

    3. Connecting rod length.

    4.

    What is meant by the crank length? a. b. c. d. The total length of the crank. The distance between the center of the large and small openings of the connecting rod. The combined length of the connecting rod and the crank. The distance between the center of the crankshaft and the large opening of the connecting rod.

    5. Crank length.

    Ratio There is a ratio between the length of the connecting rod and the crank. This is represented with `` (lambda), a dimensionless figure. The formula is: = crank length / connecting rod length A large and small engine can therefore have the same .

    1.

    What does `` mean when talking about a crank connecting rod mechanism? a. b. c. The ratio of the crank length to the connecting rod length. The strength of the crank-connecting rod mechanism. The size of the mechanism

    2. Calculate the crank connecting rod ratio ``. = 18/45 = 0.4

    3. Calculate `` of the large engine. = 25/100 = .25 4. Calculate the `` of the small engine. = 1.25/5 = .25

    5.

    What do you notice? a. b. The large and small engine has a different . The large and small engine has the same .

    Forces at Work The combustion in the engine causes a rise in pressure in the cylinder. This pressure causes a force on the piston; the piston force. The piston force can be separated into forces in the crank-connecting rod mechanism. These forces change depending on the position of the crankshaft. At the level of the piston pin the piston force (F1) can be separated into 2 forces, the connecting rod force (F2) and slide force (F3). The connecting rod force is the force received by the connecting rod. The slide bar is the force that pushes the piston against the cylinder wall. At the level of the crank pin the connecting rod force can be divided into 2 forces, the tangential force (F4) and the radial force (F5). Using the tangential force you can calculate the engine torque. The radial force that has to be received by the crankshaft.

    Turn the crankshaft.

    1.

    What do you notice? a. b. c. d. Only the piston forces changes. All forces change. All forces stay the same. All forces, except the piston force change.

    Vary the piston force.

    2.

    What do you notice? a. b. c. d. Only the connecting rod force changes. All forces change. No forces change at all. Only the piston forces changes.

    3. Piston force.

    4. Connecting rod force from the piston pin.

    5. Slide bar force.

    6.

    What is the consequence of the slide bar force? a. b. c. d. While moving, the piston remains in the middle of the cylinder. The piston is pressed against one side of the cylinder wall.

    7. Connecting rod force from the Crank pin.

    8. Radial Force

    9. Tangential force.

    10.

    With which force can you calculate the engine torque? a. b. c. d. e. The tangential force The radial force The slide bar force The piston force The connecting rod force
