Deflection for Close-Coiled Helical Spring Formula Elements

Variables
Deflection of Spring
Deflection of Spring is how a spring responds when force is applied or released.
Symbol: δ
Measurement: LengthUnit: mm
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Spring Load
Spring Load is the instantaneous load applied perpendicular to the specimen cross section.
Symbol: Wload
Measurement: ForceUnit: N
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Mean Radius
The Mean Radius of spring coil is the average distance from the centerline of the spring wire to the axis of the spring.
Symbol: R
Measurement: LengthUnit: mm
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Number of Coils
Number of Coils in spring is the total number of turns made by wire along its length.
