A 15 kW and 1200 r.p.m. motor drives a compressor at 300 r.p.m. through a pair of spur gears having 20° stub teeth. The centre to centre distance between the shafts is 400 mm. The motor pinion is made of forged steel having an allowable static stress as 210 MPa, while the gear is made of cast steel having allowable static stress as 140 MPa. Assuming that the drive operates 8 to 10 hours per day under light shock conditions and face width as 10 times the module, find from the standpoint of strength, 1. Module; 2. Face width; 3. Number of teeth and pitch circle diameter of each gear; 4. Check the gears thus designed from the consideration of wear. The material combination factor for the wear as 1.4 and the flexural endurance limit may be taken as 490 MPa.

15. A four stroke oil engine developing 75 kW at 300 r.p.m is to have the total fluctuation of speed limited to 5%. Two identical flywheels are to be designed. The workdone during the power stroke is found to be 1.3 times the average workdone during the whole cycle. The turning moment diagram can be approximated as a triangle during the power stroke. Assume that the hoop stress in the flywheel and the bending stress in the arms should not...

HW Problem 5: A 150 kW motor drives a hollow round shaft at 1,200 rpm. The outer diameter of the shaft is 100-mm and the inner diameter is 0.95*outer diameter. It is made of AISI 1050 WQ&T at 425- deg C. (a) Look online or the book and explain briefly what “WQ&T” in the material designation stand for, and how it is different than OQ&T. Which is stronger at the specified temperature? (b) Determine the maximum torsional shear stress (Tau...
