What Is The Term Fatigue Cracking And State With Reasons Two Factors Of Crankshaft Operation Which Have The Greatest Influence On The Likelihood Of Fatigue Cracking ?

Answer»

FATIGUE cracking occurs when the PRIMARY cause of crack propagation is due to the FLUCTUATING nature of the stress applied to the component.

The following factors could produce fatigue cracking:

  • HIGH combustion PRESSURES, increasing the bending stress applied to each crankshaft throw
  • Excessive crankshaft bending due to a main bearing failure, which increases the crankshaft bending stresses.
