Answer to Question #214823 in Mechanical Engineering for Muhammad Haris Kha

Question

Design a single plate automobile clutch to transmit a maximum torque of 395 Nm at 2059 rpm. The OD₁ of the clutch is 259 mm and the clutch is engaged at 91 km/h.Engine torque during engagement 141 Nm; Mass of the automobile 1559 kg. Find:

1. Find inertia of both by yourself

2. The number of revolutions of the clutch slip during engagement

3. Heat to be dissipated by the clutch for each engagement.

moment of inertia for clutch design may be calculated by 22 wheels of weight 59 kg

dia being 0.941 m plus 5 hollow tube excels with OD 184 mm and ID 174 mm and length being 6.194 feet. CALCULATE Moment of Inertia of all 22 wheels and 5 hollow tubes using their respective rotating speed. Rotating speed can be calculated by linear speed of vehicle. Calculate overall moment of inertia in kgm²Â 

Gear reduction ratio at differential 5

Torque at rear wheels available for accelerating automobile 234 Nm

Coefficient of friction for the clutch material 0.3

Permissible pressure 0.13 N/mm²
