valve blows off freely = 0.75 N/mm 2; Maximum lift of the valve when the pressure rises

length of outer spring is 15 mm greater than that of the inside spring. The wire diameter
and mean coil diameter of inner spring are 5 and 30 mm respectively. Also, the wire diameter and
mean coil diameter of outer spring are 6 and 36 mm respectively. The number of active coils

It is 62.5 mm wide and is made of strips 6 mm thick. The leaves are pre-stressed so as to equalize
stresses in all leaves. Design a leaf spring, with spring index of 6, which will have approximately
the same values of induced stress and deflection for any load. Take, E = 2.1 × 105 MPa and G =
8.4 × 104 MPa.

buffers with springs of 300 mm diameter. The maximum deflection of springs is 250 mm. The
allowable shear stress in the spring material is 6XX MPa. Design the spring for the buffers.

pulley 200 mm diameter. Assume dynamo efficiency to be 85%. Allowable stress for belt = 2.1
MPa Density of rubber = 1000 kg / m3 Angle of contact for dynamo pulley = 165° Coefficient of
friction between belt and pulley = 0.3
11 A flat belt is required to transmit 30 kW from a pulley of 1.5 m effective diameter running
at 3XX r.p.m. The angle of contact is spread over 11/24 of the circumference. The coefficient
of friction between the belt and pulley surface is 0.3. Determine, taking centrifugal tension
into account, width of the belt required. It is given that the belt thickness is 9.5 mm, density of
its material is 1100 kg/m3 and the related permissible working stress is 2.5 MPa.

15 kW, 17XX r.p.m. electric motor. The centre distance is twice the diameter of the larger pulley.
The density of the belt material = 1500 kg/m3; maximum allowable stress = 4 MPa; μ1 = 0.5
(motor pulley); μ2 = 0.4 (blower pulley); peripheral velocity of the belt = 20 m/s. Determine
the following: 1. Pulley diameters; 2. belt length; 3. cross-sectional area of the belt; 4. minimum
initial tension for operation without slip; and 5. resultant force in the plane of the blower when
operating with an initial tension 50 per cent greater than the minimum value.
13 An open belt connects two flat pulleys. The pulley diameters are 300 mm and 450 mm and
the corresponding angles of lap are 160° and 210°. The smaller pulley runs at 2XX r.p.m.
The coefficient of friction between the belt and pulley is 0.25. It is found that the belt is on
the point of slipping when 3 kW is transmitted. To increase the power transmitted two
alternatives are suggested, namely (i) increasing the initial tension by 10%, and (ii) increasing
the coefficient of friction by 10% by the application of a suitable dressing to the belt. Which
of these two methods would be more effective? Find the percentage increase in power
possible in each case.
