A single plate clutch is required to transmit 150 kW at 6000 r.p.m. The clutch facings available provide a coefficient of friction of 0.25, and the average pressure is to be limited to 75 kN/m². Determine the dimensions of the working surface of the clutch plate if its maximum dimension is not to exceed 160 mm due to space restrictions.

A single plate clutch is required to transmit 150 kW
at 6000 r.p.m. The clutch facings available
provide a coefficient of friction of 0.25, and the
average pressure is to be limited to 75 kN/m2.
Determine the dimensions of the working
surface of the clutch plate if its maximum
dimension is not to exceed 160 mm due to
space restrictions.
