Theory of Machines Miscellaneous

  1. The torque (in Nm) exerted on the crank shaft of a two stroke engine can be described as T = 10000 + 1000 sin 2θ - 1200 cos 2θ, where θ is the crank angle as measured from inner dead center position. Assuming the resisting torque to be constant, the power (in kW) developed by the engine at 100 rpm is _________.
    1. 104.719 kW
    2. 104.59 kW
    3. 105.65 kW
    4. 105 kW
Correct Option: A

T = 10000 + 1000 sin2θ – 1200 cos2θ
N = 100 rpm

ω =
2π × 100
= 10.472 rad/s
60

Tmean =
1
2π∫0[10000 + 1000sin2θ - 1200 cos2θ]dθ

By solving, we get Tmean = 10000 N-m
Power = 10000 ×
2π × 1000
60

= 104719.75 W
= 104.719 kW
