To determine

The way in which the DIAC operates.

Expert Solution & Answer

Explanation of Solution

The bi directional device that is used to control the phase shift in thyristors is called the DIAC. The DIAC can be turned in both the polarities forward bias and the reverse bias above a certain voltage.

The DIAC operates in the same way as the unijunction transistor. The DIAC operates in both AC and DC. The DIAC is used to trigger the TRIAC and other thyristors family device.

37. The vertical shaft shown in Figure P12-37 is driven at a speed of 600 rpm with 4.0 hp entering through the bevel gear. Each of the two chain sprockets delivers 2.0 hp to the side to drive mixer blades in a chemical reactor vessel. The bevel gear has a diametral pitch of 5, a pitch diameter of 9.000 in, a face width of 1.31 in, and a pressure angle of 20°. Use SAE 4140 OQT 1000 steel for the shaft. See Chapter 10 for the methods for computing the forces on the bevel gear. Figure P12-37: P37-Bevel gear drive with two chain sprockets Each problem includes the following details: ■Design the complete shaft, including the specification of the overall geometry and the consideration of stress con- centration factors. The analysis would show the minimum acceptable diameter at each point on the shaft to be safe from the standpoint of strength. Homework Problems 12-24, 12-35, and 12-37 from textbook, done in spreadsheet form. Place drawings of the load, shear, and bending moment body diagrams…
35. The double-reduction, helical gear reducer shown in Figure P12-35 transmits 5.0 hp. Shaft 1 is the input, rotating at 1800 rpm and receiving power directly from an electric motor through a flexible coupling. Shaft 2 rotates at 900 rpm. Shaft 3 is the output, rotating at 300 rpm. A chain sprocket is mounted on the output shaft as shown and delivers the power upward. The data for the gears are given in Table 12-5. Each gear has a 1412° normal pressure angle and a 45° helix angle. The combinations of left- and right-hand helixes are arranged so that the axial forces oppose each other on shaft 2 as shown. Use SAE 4140 OQT 1200 for the shafts. Figure P12-35: P35-Double-reduction helical drive Each problem includes the following details: ■Design the complete shaft, including the specification of the overall geometry and the consideration of stress con- centration factors. The analysis would show the minimum acceptable diameter at each point on the shaft to be safe from the standpoint of…
