Friction, lubrication and wear in lower kinematic pairs  113


                                 Solution
                                 For uniform pressure, p=0.07MPa; the total axial force is




                                Effective radius




                                Number of pairs of active surfaces n a = 2, then
                                        friction couple =fRn ar m= 0.25 x 1270 x 2 x 0.084 = 53.34 Mm.

                                Assuming uniform acceleration during the time required to reach full speed
                                from rest



















                                It should be noted that energy is dissipated due to clutch slip during the
                                acceleration period. This can be shown as follows:
                                  the angle turned through by the constant speed driving shaft during the
                                period of clutch slip is




                                  the angle turned through by the machine shaft during the same
                                          2
                                                        2
                                period = iat  =£ 11.6 x 2.71  =42.6 radn, thus






                                thus

                                       total energy supplied during the period of clutch slip
                                        = energy dissipated + kinetic energy
                                       = 2267 + 2267=4534Nm.
