Hi,

I may be wrong and correct me if i am. Work is the force applied over a distance: F x d.

So to calculate the work of a spiral spring it would be the spring coefficient (usually denoted as "k") times the distance. But you have to remember that the spring force is kxd, so you have to integrate the force over the distance, which will yield the following equation: work is equal to 1/2 the spring constant times the distance squared.

W=(1/2) k d2

How do you calculate the pitch of a spiral spring?

You can tell if a spiral spring pitch is normal by this equation; 0.2*D < p < 0.4*D. However, you can calculate a spiral spring pitch by l = πDn, A = πd2 /4.

How do you calculate spring efficiency?

Spring efficiency is calculated by dividing the work output of a spring by the work input. It is expressed as a ratio or percentage, with higher values indicating better efficiency. The formula is: Efficiency = (Work output / Work input) x 100%.
