The two cranks of an inside cylinder locomotive are at right angles and the distance between the cylinder centre lines is 0·625 m. The stroke of the pistons is 0·6 m and the revolving parts that have to be balanced are equivalent to 300 kg at the centre of each crank pin. The cylinders are symmetrically placed between the driving wheels, which are 1·5 m apart. Find the magnitude and angular positions of the balance masses required in the planes of the driving wheels at a radius of 0·8 m.

Question

The two cranks of an inside cylinder locomotive are at right angles and the distance
between the cylinder centre lines is 0·625 m. The stroke of the pistons is 0·6 m and the
revolving parts that have to be balanced are equivalent to 300 kg at the centre of each
crank pin. The cylinders are symmetrically placed between the driving wheels, which are
1·5 m apart. Find the magnitude and angular positions of the balance masses required in
the planes of the driving wheels at a radius of 0·8 m.
