    2. Write the expressions for static, limiting wear load and dynamic load for spur gears.
    3. When the shaft is subjected to fluctuating loads, what will be the equivalent twisting moment and
    equivalent bending moment?
    4. What are the various terms used in journal bearings analysis and design?
    5. What is meant by hydrostatic lubricated bearings?

    PART-B

    6. The engine of a ship develops 440 kW and transmits the power by a horizontal propeller shaft which
    runs at 120 r.p.m. It is proposed to design a hollow propeller shaft with inner diameter as 0.6 of the outer
    diameter. Considering torsion alone, calculate the diameter of the propeller shaft if stress in the material is
    not to exceed 63 MPa and also the angular twist over a length of 2.5 m is not to be more than 1°. The
    modulus of rigidity of the shaft material is 80 GPa. (10)

    7. A tentative design of a journal bearing results in a diameter of 75 mm and a length of 125 mm for
    supporting a load of 20 kN. The shaft runs at 1000 r.p.m. The bearing surface temperature is not to exceed
    75°C in a room temperature of 35°C. The oil used has an absolute viscosity of 0.01 kg/m-s at the
    operating temperature. Determine the amount of artificial cooling required in watts. Assume d/c = 1000.

    (10)

    8. A 15 kW and 1200 r.p.m. motor drives a compressor at 300 r.p.m. through a pair of spur gears having
    20° stub teeth. The centre to centre distance between the shafts is 400 mm. The motor pinion is made of
    forged steel having an allowable static stress as 210 MPa, while the gear is made of cast steel having
    allowable static stress as 140 MPa. Assuming that the drive operates 8 to 10 hours per day under light
    shock conditions, find from the standpoint of strength, 1. Module; 2. Face width and 3. Number of teeth
    and pitch circle diameter of each gear. Check the gears thus designed from the consideration of wear. The
    surface endurance limit may be taken as 700 MPa. (20)
