I was little confused about taking inertial forces into significance while calculating piston effort in a piston crank slider arrangement. I read an analysis of various forces acting in a piston cylinder arrangement in a book yersterday, and while calculating piston effort(net force on piston while piston is accelerating) they took inertial force into account which was opposite to direction of piston movement.
Whats the need of inertial force here? Basically what it's significance? I am a bit confused!
I have never done any analysis before taking inertial forces into account and applying de alembert's principle.
Please anyone explain me. It's urgent! :)
Thanx
