Assessment on a continuous basis with a minimum of 3 reviews.
Sample projects:
1. A full journal bearing has a journal with a diameter of 50 mm and a unilateral
tolerance of -0.03 mm. The bushing bore has a diameter of 50.06 mm and a
unilateral tolerance of 0.05 mm. The bushing is 25 mm long and support a load of
2590 N at a speed of 800 rev/min. Find the minimum film thickness, the power loss
and the total lubricant flow if the average film temperature is 54oC and SAE 20
lubricant is used. The tightest assembly is to be analysed. Show the pressure
distribution by using the numerical simulation software (Like MATLAB, C
language etc).
2. Design the spur pinion to transmit 15 kW at a speed of 600 rpm. The pinion is cut
on the 20o full-depth system and has a module of 5 mm and 16 teeth. Find a suitable
face width based on an allowable stress of 70 MPa. Ensure design safety by static
and dynamic analysis with the help of simulation software (ANSYS, SolidWorks
etc.).
3. Design the spur gear blank to transmit 20 kW at a speed of 400 rpm and has a
module of 5 mm. compare the solid gear blank and rimmed gear blank strengths.
Ensure design safety by static and dynamic analysis with the help of simulation
software (ANSYS, SolidWorks etc.).
4. Design the spur gear blank to transmit 20 kW at a speed of 400 rpm and has a
module of 5 mm. Compare the bolted gear blank and welded gear blank strengths.
Ensure design safety by static and dynamic analysis with the help of simulation
software (ANSYS, SolidWorks etc.).
5. Design the steel spur pinion and gear to transmit 25 kW at a speed of 1000 rpm and
has a module of 5 mm. Ensure design safety by static and dynamic analysis with the
help simulation software (ANSYS, SolidWorks etc.).
6. Design the steel spur pinion and gear to transmit 25 kW at a speed of 1000 rpm and
has a module of 5 mm. Show the stresses developed by normal force in gear tooth
and identify the highest stress locations. Identify the most suitable material for the
gear drive.
7. In a turbine drive, 300 kW power is transmitted using a pair of double helical. gear.
The pinion speed is 2950 rpm and that of the gear is about 816.5 rpm. There are no
space constraints on the gear drive. Selecting suitable materials, design the pinion
and the gear to last for 108 cycles. Design the gearbox completely. Also, ensure the
design by using simulation software.
