    How to calculate angular acceleration of crankshaft?

    What I have now done is estimated the pressure in the cylinder at different crank angles assuming atmospheric pressure when the piston is at the bottom of its stroke (180 degrees) for that very brief period of time while the inlet valve opens. I have then calculated a fuel-air gas mixture of...

    How to calculate angular acceleration of crankshaft?

    The engine has been overhauled and is currently in pieces haha. The primary reason for this is to establish the torque of the crankshaft and from that I can derive the pressure in the cylinder. The pressure will change rapidly as the piston moves up and down obviously. Or could I derive the...

    How to calculate angular acceleration of crankshaft?

    Hello. I am currently undergoing a university project and require the angular acceleration of a crankshaft? I only know the angular velocity from the RPM and I have strongly considered that it is not possible. Just looking for some reassurance? Cheers
