Why different piston clearances are allowed at the top, in the middle and at the open end of a
piston?
The piston of an automobile engine is held to the connecting rod by a wrist pin having an
external diameter of 20 mm and internal diameter of 11 mm. The length of the bearing in the
rod end is 25 mm and the bearing in each boss of the piston is 15 mm. The maximum load
transmitted is 14.50 KN.
(i) Determine the bearing pressure between the rod end and the wrist pin.
(ii) Compute the maximum bending stress in the pin, assuming that it is a simple beam with a
uniform load. Compute the maximum deflection of the pin.
(b)
A machine member is made from a triangular section rod and is located as shown in figure. If
the maximum stress at any section or point is not to exceed 20 N/mm2, determine the
dimensions of the rod.

A flat belt, 8 mm thick and 100 mm wide transmits power between two pulleys, running at 1600
m/min. The mass of the belt is 0.9 kg/m length. The angle of lap in the smaller pulley is 1650
and the coefficient of friction between the belt and pulleys is 0.3. If the maximum permissible
stress in the belt is 2 MN/m2.Find: (i) maximum power transmitted and (ii) initial tension in the
belt.
A steel pinion with 200 full depth involute teeth is transmitting 7.5 kW power at 1000 r.p.m from
an electric motor. The starting torque of the motor is twice the rated torque. The number of
teeth on the pinion is 25, while the module is 4 mm. The face width is 45 mm. Assuming that
the velocity factor accounts for the dynamic load. Calculate (i) effective load on the gear tooth,
and (ii) bending stress in the gear tooth.
