Ratio i, calculating


Transmission ratio

Transmission
ratio = No. of teeth
driven gear : No. of teeth
drive gear

Ratios
Formula
iG = gear ratio ZG2 : ZG1
iA = axle ratio ZA2 : ZA1
iov = overall ratio iG x iA

Example:


5th gear
Final drive
Drive gear ZG1 = 37 ZA1 = 9
Driven gear ZG2 = 31 ZA2 = 35

Calculations:

iG = 31 : 37 = 0.838
iA = 35 : 9 = 3.889
iov = (31 : 37) x (35 : 9) = 0.838 x 3.889 =
3.259

Vehicle speed V, calculating


V
=
n : iov x UA x 0.06
n = Engine speed (RPM)
iov = Overall ratio
UA = Dynamic rolling circumference of tires
(m)
V = Vehicle speed (km/h)

Example:

V = 1000 : 3.100 x 1.93 x 0.06 = 37 km/h
At an engine speed of 1000 RPM, the vehicle
road speed in 5th gear is 37 km/h.
