Variables Used
Torque Transmitted - (Measured in Newton Meter) - Torque Transmitted is the torque transmitted by the friction disc during operation.
Number of Friction Discs - Number of Friction Discs is the total number of friction discs that constitute a clutch.
Coefficient of Friction Disc - Coefficient of Friction Disc is a dimensionless number that is defined as the ratio between friction force and normal force.
Total Axial Load - (Measured in Newton) - Total Axial Load is the force that is acting on the clutch during torque transmission.
Mean Diameter of Friction Disc - (Measured in Meter) - Mean Diameter of Friction Disc is the average of outer and inner diametr of the friction disc.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Number of Friction Discs: 6 --> No Conversion Required
Coefficient of Friction Disc: 0.3 --> No Conversion Required
Total Axial Load: 9424.778 Newton --> 9424.778 Newton No Conversion Required
