Calculates transmission gear ratios affecting acceleration, engine RPM, and fuel economy at cruising speed.
Stapsgewijze handleiding
- 1Calculate RPM at given speed: (speed × 5280 × 60) ÷ (wheel circumference × 12 × 3.14159 × ratio)
- 2Final drive ratio multiplied by transmission ratio
- 3Higher ratio = more torque multiplication, lower speed capability
- 4Overdrive ratios <1.0 for efficiency
Uitgewerkte voorbeelden
Invoer
Final drive 3.55:1
Resultaat
Rpm multiplier
Veelgemaakte fouten om te vermijden
- ✕Assuming higher gear count always better (depends on driving)
- ✕Not considering RPM at highway speed (affects efficiency/noise)
Veelgestelde vragen
Why do some cars have more gears?
More gears allow optimization of acceleration and cruising; modern 8-10 speed improves efficiency 5-10%.
What's the difference between 3.55 and 4.10 rear diff?
4.10 accelerates faster but cruises at higher RPM and lower MPG; 3.55 is efficiency oriented.
