Calculate Twist Rate (TW)



Formula

The formula to calculate the Twist Rate (TW) is:

\[ \text{TW} = \frac{\text{D}}{\text{R}} \]

Example

Let's say the inches of travel (D) is 30 inches and the number of rotations (R) is 5. Using the formula:

\[ \text{TW} = \frac{30}{5} = 6 \, \text{inches/rotation} \]

So, the twist rate is 6 inches per rotation.
