Damper Calculation: Calculate Damping Force

Click For Summary
Damping force can be calculated using the formula F_d = -c * v, where F_d is the damping force, c is the damping coefficient, and v is the velocity of the object. The relationship between springs and dampers is crucial, as the spring constant (k) and damping coefficient (c) together affect the system's response to motion. Understanding this relationship helps in designing systems for optimal performance, particularly in mechanical and automotive applications. The damping ratio, which is the ratio of the damping coefficient to the critical damping coefficient, also plays a significant role in determining system stability. Accurate calculations are essential for effective damping in various engineering applications.

Hi,
I want to know relation between spring & damper relation for calculating damping forces...
 

Thread 'UV filter for home central heating?'

Had my central air system checked when it sortta wasn't working. I guess I hadn't replaced the filter. Guy suggested I might want to get a UV filter accessory. He said it would "kill bugs and particulates". I know UV can kill the former, not sure how he thinks it's gonna murder the latter. Now I'm finding out there's more than one type of UV filter: one for the air flow and one for the coil. He was suggesting we might get one for the air flow, but now we'll have to change the bulb...
