To determine

The three types of electrical diagrams used in heating, cooling, and refrigeration industry.

Explanation of Solution

The three types of electrical diagrams used in heating, cooling and refrigeration industry are as follows:

  1. 1. Schematic diagrams: Schematic diagrams are the diagrams having symbols of electrical components and lines to represent wiring and these are also known as circuit diagrams. They represent the connection of the electrical objects in a circuit that helps to find an error in a circuit so that it can be rectify before manufacturing it.
  2. 2. Pictorial diagrams: Pictorial diagrams are also similar to schematic diagrams. They differ by the presentation of electrical objects in the circuit. In pictorial diagrams, the electrical objects are represented by the actual picture of the electrical objects. These diagrams are easy to understand because of the picture presentation of objects.
  3. 3. Installation diagrams: Installation diagrams are also called as wire diagrams. The wires are represented by the different colors and sizes so that the installer easily understands the connections. These diagrams also give the information about the arrangement of the devices and their relative positions.

Q1: Determine the length, angle of contact, and width of a 9.75 mm thick leather belt required to transmit 15 kW from a motor running at 900 r.p.m. The diameter of the driving pulley of the motor is 300 mm. The driven pulley runs at 300 r.p.m. and the distance between the centers of two pulleys is 3 meters. The density of the leather is 1000 kg/m³. The maximum allowable stress in the leather is 2.5 MPa. The coefficient of friction between the leather and pulley is 0.3. Assume open belt drive.
5. A 15 kW and 1200 r.p.m. motor drives a compressor at 300 r.p.m. through a pair of spur gears having 20° stub teeth. The centre to centre distance between the shafts is 400 mm. The motor pinion is made of forged steel having an allowable static stress as 210 MPa, while the gear is made of cast steel having allowable static stress as 140 MPa. Assuming that the drive operates 8 to 10 hours per day under light shock conditions, find from the standpoint of strength, 1. Module; 2. Face width and 3. Number of teeth and pitch circle diameter of each gear. Check the gears thus designed from the consideration of wear. The surface endurance limit may be taken as 700 MPa. [Ans. m = 6 mm; b= 60 mm; Tp=24; T=96; Dp = 144mm; DG = 576 mm]
4. G A micarta pinion rotating at 1200 r.p.m. is to transmit 1 kW to a cast iron gear at a speed of 192 r.p.m. Assuming a starting overload of 20% and using 20° full depth involute teeth, determine the module, number of teeth on the pinion and gear and face width. Take allowable static strength for micarta as 40 MPa and for cast iron as 53 MPa. Check the pair in wear.
