Q.1 (a) Explain the terms ?fluctuation of energy? and ?fluctuation of speed? as applied
to flywheels. Define the terms ?coefficient of fluctuation of energy? and
?coefficient of fluctuation of speed?, in the case of flywheels.

(b) Prove that the maximum fluctuation of energy,
?E = E ? 2CS

(b) The turning moment diagram for a multi-cylinder engine has been drawn
to a scale of 1 mm to 500 N-m torque and 1 mm to 6? of crank displacement.
The intercepted areas between output torque curve and mean resistance line
taken in order from one end, in sq. mm are
? 30, + 410, ? 280, + 320, ? 330, + 250, ? 360, + 280, ? 260 sq. mm, when the
engine is running at 800 r.p.m.
The engine has a stroke of 300 mm and the fluctuation of speed is not to exceed
? 2% of the mean speed. Determine a suitable diameter and cross-section of the
flywheel rim for a limiting value of the safe centrifugal stress of 7 MPa. The
material density may be assumed as 7200 kg/m3. The width of the rim is to be
5 times the thickness.

Q.3 (a) A ship propelled by a turbine rotor which has a mass of 5 tonnes and a speed
of 2100 r.p.m. The rotor has a radius of gyration of 0.5 m and rotates in a
clockwise direction when viewed from the stern. Find the gyroscopic effects in
the following conditions:
1. The ship sails at a speed of 30 km/h and steers to the left in a curve having 60
m radius.
2. The ship pitches 6 degree above and 6 degree below the horizontal
position.The bow is descending with its maximum velocity. The motion due to
pitching is simple harmonic and the periodic time is 20 seconds.
3. The ship rolls and at a certain instant it has an angular velocity of 0.03 rad/s
clockwise when viewed from stern.
Determine also the maximum angular acceleration during pitching. Explain how
the direction of motion due to gyroscopic effect is determined in each case.
07
(b) Explain the effect of the gyroscopic couple on the reaction of the four wheels of
a vehicle negotiating a curve.
