Jan 18, 2019 at 1:17 comment added ExcelMania Hi kamran. Thanks for your help... 1 lbf = 1lb weight. So I am confused.
Jan 17, 2019 at 4:52 comment added kamran @ExcelMania, I will check it later, you check for the difference between lbs weight and lbs force, if I remember correctly you need to divide by 32.2.
Jan 17, 2019 at 1:52 comment added ExcelMania Hi Thanks for reply. When I try and convert to SAE units, I do not get correct results and the reason I belive is in the acceleration calculation. The value becomes drastic. This is not correct. .... Example::: wt(lbs) = 45...... Distance (in) = 39.37...... Desired Velocity (in/min) = 1183 ........ Friction = .003...... Pitch (in) = .109....... Dia (in) = .789...... ----- VFinal = 1183*2 = 2366 in/min....... a = VFinal^2/2 = 2798978 in/min...... F = 126331872 in/lbs...... Mech Adv = 22.844..... T = 12801xxxxxxx in-lbs..... What am I missing? Thanks very much,
