Holding or Braking or Fixing Torque on Fixed Member Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the Total Torque is:

\[ T = T_1 \left( \frac{N_1}{N_2} - 1 \right) \]

Where:

\(T\) is the Total Torque (Nm)
\(T_1\) is the Input Torque on Driving Member (Nm)
\(N_1\) is the Angular Speed of Driving Member in RPM
\(N_2\) is the Angular Speed of Driven Member in RPM

Definition

Total Torque is the measure of the force that can cause an object to rotate about an axis. Force is what causes an object to accelerate in linear kinematics.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Input Torque on Driving Member (\(T_1\)) = 17 Nm
Angular Speed of Driving Member (\(N_1\)) = 146.607657160058 RPM
Angular Speed of Driven Member (\(N_2\)) = 11.6666666666667 RPM

Using the formula:

\[ T = 17 \left( \frac{146.607657160058}{11.6666666666667} - 1 \right) \]

Evaluating:

\[ T = 196.628300433227 \text{ Nm} \]

The Total Torque is 196.628300433227 Nm.
