Theory of Machine
In the below figure, PC is the connecting rod and OC is the crank making an angle θ with the line of stroke PO and rotates with uniform angular velocity at ω rad/s. The Klien's acceleration diagram for determining the acceleration of the piston P is shown by quadrilateral CQNO. The acceleration of the piston P with respect to the crank-pin C is given by
Inversely proportional to the distance from the points to the instantaneous center and is perpendicular to the line joining the point to the instantaneous center
Directly proportional to the distance from the points to the instantaneous center and is parallel to the line joining the point to the instantaneous center
