Helix Information

A HELIX is a three dimensional spiraling circular object.  The most common application of the helix shape is in the common spring.  A helix has a height or length, diameter and pitch, where pitch is the measurement between the spirals (see diagram).

Helix Calculators:

• Length of Helix - Computes the length of the material composing the helix if elongated.
• Height of Helix - Computes the height of a helix based on length of material, pitch and diameter.
• Volume of Helix - Computes the total displacement of helix cylinder and the displacement of the helix material as if in liquid.
