Assignment1, DOM, 5th sem,Mech-1 : Due date 12/08/2019.

1) A vertical petrol engine 100 mm diameter and 120 mm stroke has a


connecting rod 250 mm long. The mass of the piston is 1.1 kg. The speed
is 2000 r.p.m. On the expansion stroke with a crank 20° from top dead
centre, the gas pressure is 700 kN/m2. Determine: 1. Net force on the
piston, 2. Resultant load on the gudgeon pin,3. Thrust on the cylinder
walls, and 4. Speed above which, other things remaining same, the
gudgeon pin load would be reversed in direction.
2) A vertical, single cylinder, single acting diesel engine has a cylinder
diameter 300 mm, stroke length 500 mm, and connecting rod length 4.5
times the crank length. The engine runs at 180 r.p.m. The mass of the
reciprocating parts is 280 kg. The compression ratio is 14 and the
pressure remains constant during the injection of the oil for (1/10)th of
the stroke. If the compression and expansion follows the law p.V1.35 =
constant, find: 1. Crank-pin effort, 2. Thrust on the bearings, and 3.
Turning moment on the crank shaft, when the crank displacement is 45°
from the inner dead centre position during expansion stroke. The suction
pressure may be taken as 0.1 N/mm2.
3) A vertical double acting steam engine has cylinder diameter 240 mm,
length of stroke 360 mm and length of connecting rod 0.6 m. The crank
rotates at 300 r.p.m, and the mass of the reciprocating parts is 160 kg.
The steam is admitted at a pressure of 8 bar gauge and cut-off takes
place at 1/3rd of the stroke. The expansion of steam is hyperbolic. The
exhaust of steam takes place at a pressure of –0.75 bar gauge. The
frictional resistance is equivalent to a force of 500 N. Determine the
turning moment on the crankshaft, when the piston is 75° from the top
dead centre. Neglect the effect of clearance and assume the atmospheric
presssure as 1.03 bar.
4) A connecting rod of an I.C. engine has a mass of 2 kg and the distance
between the centre of gudgeon pin and centre of crank pin is 250 mm.
The C.G. falls at a point 100 mm from the gudgeon pin along the line of
centres. The radius of gyration about an axis through the
C.G.perpendicular to the plane of rotation is 110 mm. Find the
equivalent dynamical system if only one of the masses is located at
gudgeon pin. If the connecting rod is replaced by two masses, one at the
gudgeon pin and the other at the crank pin and the angular acceleration
of the rod is 23 000 rad/s 2 clockwise, determine the correction couple
applied to the system to reduce it to a dynamically equivalent system.
5) The crank and connecting rod lengths of an engine are 125 mm and 500
mm respectively. The mass of the connecting rod is 60 kg and its centre
of gravity is 275 mm from the crosshead pin centre, the radius of
gyration about centre of gravity being 150 mm. If the engine speed is 600
r.p.m. for a crank position of 45° from the inner dead centre, determine,
1. the acceleration of the piston; 2. the magnitude, position and direction
of inertia force due to the mass of the connecting rod.
6) A machine punching 38 mm holes in 32 mm thick plate requires 7 N-m
of energy per sq. mm of sheared area, and punches one hole in every 10
seconds. Calculate the power of the motor required. The mean speed of
the flywheel is 25 metres per second. The punch has a stroke of 100
mm.Find the mass of the flywheel required, if the total fluctuation of
speed is not to exceed 3% of the mean speed. Assume that the motor
supplies energy to the machine at uniform rate.
7) A three cylinder single acting engine has its cranks set equally at 120°
and it runs at 600 r.p.m. The torque-crank angle diagram for each cycle
is a triangle for the power stroke with a maximum torque of 90 N-m at
60° from dead centre of corresponding crank. The torque on the return
stroke is sensibly zero. Determine : 1. power developed. 2. coefficient of
fluctuation of speed, if the mass of the flywheel is 12 kg and has a radius
of gyration of 80 mm, 3. coefficient of fluctuation of energy, and 4.
maximum angular acceleration of the flywheel.
