    V SEMESTER B.TECH. (AUTOMOBILE ENGINEERING)

    END SEMESTER EXAMINATIONS, NOV/DEC 2016

    SUBJECT: THEORY OF MACHINES [AAE3152]


    REVISED CREDIT SYSTEM
    (26/11/2016)
    Time: 3 Hours MAX. MARKS: 50

    Instructions to Candidates:
     Answer ALL the questions.
     Missing data may be suitable assumed.

    1A. The firing order in a 6-cylinder vertical 4-stroke in-line engine is I-IV-II-VI-III-V. (05)
    The piston stroke is 100 mm and length of each connecting rod is 200 mm.
    The pitch distance between cylinder centerlines are 100 mm, 150 mm, 100 mm
    150 mm and 100 mm respectively. The reciprocating masses per cylinder are
    1 kg and the engine runs at 3000 rpm. Determine the out of balance primary
    forces and couples on this engine taking a plane mid-way between the
    cylinders 3 and 4 as the reference plane.
    1B State and prove Kennedy’s theorem for I-Centers (03)

    1C. Differentiate between a Governor and a flywheel (02)

    2A. A spring loaded governor of the Hartnell type has arms of equal lengths. The (05)
    weight rotates in a circle of 13 cm diameter when the sleeve is in mid-position
    and the weight arms are vertical. The equilibrium speed for this position is 450
    rpm, neglecting friction. The maximum sleeve movement is to be 2.5 cm and
    the maximum variation of speed, taking friction into account, is to be 5 % of the
    mid-position speed. The weight of the sleeve is 39 N and the friction may be
    considered equivalent to 29 N at the sleeve. The power of the governor must
    be sufficient to overcome the friction by a one per cent change of speed either
    way at mid-position. Determine, neglecting obliquity effect of arms:
    (a) Weight of each rotating mass. (b) Spring stiffness in N/cm. (c) Initial
    compression of spring
    2B. Two involute spur gears of module 3 mm and with 18 and 26 teeth operate at (03)
    a pressure angle of 200. Find out the maximum addendum for the gears so that
    no interference occurs. Assume the addendum for gears to be equal.
    2C. With a neat diagram describe Elliptical trammel (02)

    3A. State and prove law of gearing (03)

    3B. Derive an equation for Gyroscopic couple. (03)

    3C. In the planetary gear train shown (04)


    in fig., Gear A is driver and gear
    B and D are compounded. Gears
    E and C are internal gears with
    gear C is fixed. Number of Teeth
    on gears are shown in the fig. If
    the Driver gear rotates at 720rpm
    ccw, when seen from right, find
    the speed of The driven gear.
    Also calculate the speed ratio.

    4A. (07)
    In the mechanism shown
    in Fig. the crank O2A
    rotates at 20 rpm in the
    direction indicated. For
    the given configuration,
    determine (i) the
    velocities of sliding at B
    and D. Given O2A = 12
    cm, AB = 48 cm, BC = 18
    cm, and CD = 18 cm.
    4B. Define the following: (i) Governor stability (ii)Backlash in Gear (iii) kinematic (02)
    pair (iv) Pressure angle of the cam
    4C. What is the physical meaning of Contact ratio in gears is 1.7 (01)

    5A. A knife edge follower is offset to the right by 1.2 cm. The lift of the follower is (06)
    4cm. The base circle radius of the cam is 2.5cm. The cam rotates at 120rpm
    in the ccw direction. Lay out the cam profile if (i) the rise is for 150 0 of cam
    rotation, the first 600 being with constant acceleration and rest at constant
    deceleration. (ii) the dwell is for 300. (iii) the return is for 1500 of cam rotation
    with uniform velocity and (iv) the second dwell is for 300.
    5B. In Q 5A, find the maximum velocity of the follower during the outstroke. (01)

    5C. Explain Interference and undercutting in involute gears and the means to (03)
    minimize the same.
