    1-The turning moment diagram for a multicylinder engine has been drawn to a
    scale of 1 mm = 4500 N-m vertically and 1 mm = 2.4° horizontally. The intercepted
    areas between output torque curve and mean resistance line taken in order from
    one end are 342, 230, 245, 303, 115, 232, 227, 164 , when the engine is running
    at 150 r.p.m. If the mass of the flywheel is 1000 kg and the total fluctuation of speed
    does not exceed 3% of the mean speed, find the minimum value of the radius of
    gyration.

    2-The turning moment diagram for a multicylinder engine has been drawn to a
    scale 1 mm = 600 N-m vertically and 1 mm = 3° horizontally. The intercepted areas
    between the output torque curve and the mean resistance line, taken in order from
    one end, are as follows: + 52, – 124, + 92, – 140, + 85, – 72 and + 107 , when the
    engine is running at a speed of 600 r.p.m. If the total fluctuation of speed is not to
    exceed ± 1.5% of the mean, find the necessary mass of the flywheel of radius 0.5 m.

    5-The effective turning moment exerted at the crank shaft of an engine is


    represented by
    T=40 000 + 5000 – 10 000 N.m
    Where θ is the inclination of the crank with the inner dead center. The mass of the
    flywheel is 1600kg and its radius of gyration is 0.8m.The engine speed is
    120rpm.And the external resistance Constant. Calculate (a) the horsepower
    developed, (b) the total percentage fluctuation in speed, is and(c) the maximum
    angular acceleration of the flywheel.

    6-The torque exerted on the crank shaft of an engine is given in N.m by the
    expression:
    T 10500+1620 - 1340
    Where θ is the crank angle measured from inner dead center. Assuming the
    resisting torque to be constant. Determine:
    -the power of the engine at a mean speed of 2000rpm
    -the moment of inertia of the flywheel if the speed variation is not to exceed ±0.4%
    The angular acceleration of the flywheel when the crank has turned through
    from inner dead center.-

    7- The torque exerted on the crank shaft of a two stroke engine is given by the
    equation:
    T (N-m) = 14 500 + 2300 sin 2 − 1900 cos 2
    Where is the crank angle displacement from the inner dead center. Assuming the
    resisting torque to be constant, determine: 1. The power of the engine when the
    speed is 150 r.p.m.; 2. The moment of inertia of the flywheel if the speed variation is
    not to exceed ± 0.5% of the mean speed; and 3. The angular acceleration of the
    flywheel when the crank has turned through 30° from the inner dead center.

    8- Answer the following questions:

    a- Draw the turning moment diagram of a single cylinder double acting steam
    engine.
    b- Explain the turning moment diagram of a four stroke cycle internal
    combustion engine.
    c- Explain the terms ‘fluctuation of energy’ and ‘fluctuation of speed’ as applied
    to flywheels.
    d- What is the function of a flywheel?
    e- Prove that the maximum fluctuation of energy,

    E=E×2
    Where, E = Mean kinetic energy of the flywheel, and
    = Coefficient of fluctuation of speed.
