Concept explainers
An eccentric circular cam, which serves a similar function as the Scotch yoke mechanism in Problem 11.13, is used in conjunction with a flat face follower to control motion in pumps and in steam engine valves. Knowing that the eccentricity is denoted by e, the maximum range of the displacement of the follower is dmax, and the maximum velocity of the follower is vmax, determine the displacement, velocity, and acceleration of the follower.

- QUESTION 1 A double-acting reciprocating piston pump which has a stroke length of 350 mm and a bore of 175 mm, takes water in from a sump 3 m below and delivers it at a height of 46 m above the pump level. Both the suction and delivery pipes have a diameter of 100 mm and lengths of 6 m and 75 m respectively. The pump piston follows the motion of a simple harmonic at 40 double strokes per minute. Large air vessels are fitted on both sides of the pump. On the suction side is the air vessel 1.5 m and on the delivery side 4.5 m away from the pump. The Darcy's coefficient of friction for both pipes is 0.008. Calculate the pressure difference across the piston at the beginning of the stroke.arrow_forwardhelp me, pleasearrow_forwardA Kaplan turbine runner develops 9 300 kW under a net head of 7.4 m.
