Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Wheel Rate of Vehicle
Wheel Rate of Vehicle is the ratio of the spring rate of the suspension to the motion ratio of the tire, affecting the racing car's handling and stability.
Symbol: Kt
Measurement: Surface TensionUnit: N/m
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Installation Ratio
Installation ratio is the proportion of tire installation that affects the racing car's performance, handling, and overall tire behavior during a race.
Symbol: IR
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Damper Angle from Vertical
Damper angle from vertical is the angle at which the damper is positioned in relation to the vertical axis of the racing car's tire.
Symbol: Φ

How to Evaluate Spring rate given wheel rate?

Spring rate given wheel rate evaluator uses Spring Rate = Wheel Rate of Vehicle/((Installation Ratio^2)*cos(Damper Angle from Vertical)) to evaluate the Spring Rate, Spring rate given wheel rate formula is defined as the measure of a spring's stiffness in relation to the wheel rate, providing a way to quantify the suspension's ability to absorb bumps and maintain vehicle stability. Spring Rate is denoted by K symbol.

How to evaluate Spring rate given wheel rate using this online evaluator? To use this online evaluator for Spring rate given wheel rate, enter Wheel Rate of Vehicle (Kt), Installation Ratio (IR) & Damper Angle from Vertical (Φ) and hit the calculate button.

FAQs on Spring rate given wheel rate

What is the formula to find Spring rate given wheel rate?
The formula of Spring rate given wheel rate is expressed as Spring Rate = Wheel Rate of Vehicle/((Installation Ratio^2)*cos(Damper Angle from Vertical)). Here is an example- 60311.79 = 100/((0.5^2)*cos(1.56416407563702)).
How to calculate Spring rate given wheel rate?
With Wheel Rate of Vehicle (Kt), Installation Ratio (IR) & Damper Angle from Vertical (Φ) we can find Spring rate given wheel rate using the formula - Spring Rate = Wheel Rate of Vehicle/((Installation Ratio^2)*cos(Damper Angle from Vertical)). This formula also uses Cosine (cos) function(s).
Can the Spring rate given wheel rate be negative?
No, the Spring rate given wheel rate, measured in Surface Tension cannot be negative.
Which unit is used to measure Spring rate given wheel rate?
Spring rate given wheel rate is usually measured using the Newton per Meter[N/m] for Surface Tension. Millinewton per Meter[N/m], Gram-Force per Centimeter[N/m], Dyne per Centimeter[N/m] are the few other units in which Spring rate given wheel rate can be measured.
