A locomotive consists of multi cylinder reciprocating engine running at a speed of 8 r.p.s having a stroke length of 25cm, which carries a mass of reciprocating part whose magnitude is 8kgs with a revolving part of 4kgs rotating at 17cm radius. If two third of the reciprocating parts and all the revolving parts are to be balanced, determine the following when the crank has rotated 560 from top dead centre to bottom dead centre. 1. Maximum primary unbalanced force of reciprocating mass in newtons 2. Balancing mass required at a radius of 35cm in kgs 3. Variation of maximum & minimum tractive force in newtons 4. Variation of maximum & minimum swaying couple for the given centre distance 72cm between the two cylinders in (N-m) 5. Magnitude of Hammer blow in newtons
