Piston Travel with a Finite Connecting-rod (Fig. 55).Let R=OD = crank throw; L = Dd = connecting-rod length;ab = travel of cross-head;then with centers a and d, draw the arcs CAC and Dg, using thelength of… … Fig. 55. Drop the perpendicular D/; then, from the figure, we seethat the piston travel for a finite connecting-rod is equal to fg + fA = L-Lcosa + R-R cos d =L(1 -cos a) +jK(1 -cos 0).
