The following figure shows a brake with one shoe (a second shoe would normally be used to balance the forces, but only one shoe is shown here to keep the problem a little shorter). The width of the shoe contact with the drum is 50 mm. The brake band lining material provides a coefficient of friction of 0.2 and permits an average pressure of 750 kPa based on the "projected" area of contact. The initial drum speed is 1500 rpm. Answer the following questions using the "short shoe drum brake" relationships. a.) What value of force "F" can be applied without exceeding the allowable contact pressure? b.) What is the resulting brake torque c.) Is the brake self-energizing or self-deenergizing for the given direction of rotation? d.) What is the magnitude and direction of the resultant force applied to the "lever pivot bearing" at point "A"? e.) If full application of the brake brings the drum from its initial rotational speed of 1500 rpm to a stop in 8 seconds, how much heat is generated? f.)

Solve and show for given solutions 

The following figure shows a brake with one shoe (a second shoe would normally be
used to balance the forces, but only one shoe is shown here to keep the problem a
little shorter). The width of the shoe contact with the drum is 50 mm. The brake
band lining material provides a coefficient of friction of 0.2 and permits an average
pressure of 750 kPa based on the "projected" area of contact. The initial drum speed
is 1500 rpm. Answer the following questions using the "short shoe drum brake"
relationships.
a.) What value of force "F" can be applied without exceeding the allowable
contact pressure?
b.) What is the resulting brake torque
c.) Is the brake self-energizing or self-deenergizing for the given direction of
rotation?
d.) What is the magnitude and direction of the resultant force applied to the
"lever pivot bearing" at point "A"?
e.) If full application of the brake brings the drum from its initial rotational
speed of 1500 rpm to a stop in 8 seconds, how much heat is generated?
f.) What average power is developed by the brake as the drum is brought to
rest as described in "part e"?
