A multi-disc wet clutch is to transmit 120 Nm of torque at 1000 rpm using sintered friction material.

(i) Assuming uniform wear, find the outside and inside diameters required if ri = 0.577ro.

(ii) What is the power transmitted?

(iii) Using the diameters found in (i), determine the power transmitted when the clutch is new.

) A wet multiple-disc clutch with sintered linings is required to transmit 120 Nm of torque at 1000 rev/min. The axial force is created when 6 helical compression springs deflect 5 mm. Each spring has a spring constant k = 142 N/mm. Assuming uniform wear, determine :- (i) the outside and inside diameters if ri = 0.577 ro . (ii) the number of discs required. (iii) the maximum power that can be transmitted

An automotive engine develops maximum torque at a speed of 1000 rpm At this speed, the power developed by the engine is 25 kW. The engine is equipped with a single plate clutch having two pairs of friction surfaces. The mean diameter of the friction disk is 190 mm and the coefficient of friction is 0.35. Six springs, with a spring index of 6, provide the necessary axial force. The springs are made of patented and cold-drawn steel wires of...
