Slider & Crank Mechanisms.

 

How would you obtain power and efficiency from a slider & crank mechanism.

Is there a relationship?

 

I would starty by explaining my question in a bit more detail.

 

What you said may be OK in a classroom when you are in the middle of discussing the subject and have lots of context, but i am not sure what you are asking.

 

Are you talking about steady running and load on the machine or accelerating a load from a standing start?

 

Both the power and efficiency are affected by the compression available in the cylinder, if the slider is a piston.

The speed of running and the mass of the piston will also be involved.

 

Or are you just asking how to maximise efficiency - ie reduce friction etc?
