Internal Diameter

 
Internal Diameter  
The diameter of a circle coinciding with the tops of the teeth of an internal gear. Usually referred to as ID or minor diameter.
Whereas:
From Gear Data
z = number of teeth in gear (61)
Mn = normal module pitch (8)
DPn = normal diametral pitch (3.175)

Formula:
Internal Diameter - Module Pitch:
= (z-2)*Mn
= (61-2)*8
= 59*8
= 472mm

Internal Diameter - Diametral Pitch:
= (z-2)/ DPn
= (61-2)/3.175
= 59/3.175
= 18.582inches
