TOPIC 3.1 SAMPLE PROBLEMS

Problem 1: A single disc clutch with both sides of the disc effective is used to transmit 10 kW
power at 900 rpm. The axial pressure is limited to 0.085 N/mm2. If the external diameter of the
friction lining is 1.25 times the internal diameter, find the required dimensions of the friction lining
and the axial force exerted by the springs. Assume uniform wear conditions. The coefficient of
friction may be taken as 0.3. Then considering constant pressure and the same dimensions and
force, determine the total frictional torque.

Problem 2: An engine developing 45 kW at 1000 r.p.m. is fitted with a cone clutch built inside the
flywheel. The cone has a face angle of 12.5° and a maximum mean diameter of 500 mm. The
coefficient of friction is 0.2. The normal pressure on the clutch face is not to exceed 0.1 N/mm2.
Determine: a. the face width required, and b. the axial spring force necessary to engage the clutch.
