Steam Lap at Admission and Cutoff Formula Elements

Variables
Functions
Steam Lap
Steam Lap is the amount (or distance) that the steam side of the valve overlaps the port.
Symbol: s
Measurement: LengthUnit: mm
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Eccentricity or Throw of Eccentric
Eccentricity or Throw of Eccentric is the extent to which the mantle veers from its axis, so it defines the rate at which the material falls through the chamber.
Symbol: r
Measurement: LengthUnit: mm
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Crank Angle
Crank Angle refers to the position of an engine's crankshaft in relation to the piston as it travels inside of the cylinder wall.
Symbol: θ
Measurement: AngleUnit: °
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Angle of Advance of the Eccentric
Angle of advance of the eccentric the angle in excess of 90° that a steam-engine valve gear is in advance of the crank.
Symbol: α
Measurement: AngleUnit: °
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
sin
Sine is a trigonometric function that describes the ratio of the length of the opposite side of a right triangle to the length of the hypotenuse.
Syntax: sin(Angle)
