1. Define​ ​Engine​ ​shaking​ ​force.​ ​(N/D-13,​ ​M/J-13)
The force produced in an engine due to the mass of the piston and mass of
the​ ​connecting​ ​rod​ ​is​ ​called​ ​as​ ​the​ ​engine​ ​shaking​ ​force.

2. Distinguish​ ​between​ ​static​ ​force​ ​and​ ​inertia​ ​force.​ ​(M/J​ ​-13)

Static​ ​force Inertia​ ​Force

Mass of the body and inertia force is Inertia force is a force which when
not considered then the force is called acts upon a rigid body, brings it in an
as​ ​Static​ ​force. equilibrium.

3. Distinguish between crank effort and Piston effort. (N/D 12, M/J

D’Alemberts principle states that, the inertia forces and torques, and the
external forces and torques acting on a body together result in statical
equilibrium.
ƩExternal​ ​force​ ​+​ ​Inertia​ ​force =​ ​0 i.e)​ ​ ​ ​F​ ​–​ ​ma​ ​=​ ​0
ƩExternal​ ​torque​ ​+​ ​Inertia​ ​torque =​ ​0 i.e)​ ​ ​ ​T​ ​–​ ​Iα​ ​ ​=​ ​0
​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​Application​ ​of​ ​D’Alembert’s​ ​principle:
This principle is used to reduce a dynamic analysis problem into an
equivalent​ ​problem​ ​of​ ​static​ ​equilibrium.

BALANCING
6. Write the expressions for primary and secondary unbalanced forces of
reciprocating​ ​masses.​ ​(M/J-13)
Primary​ ​unbalanced​ ​force​ ​F​P​​ ​=​ ​mrω​2​cosӨ
Secondary​ ​unbalanced​ ​force​ ​F​S​​ ​=​ ​mrω​2​cos2Ө/n
7. Unbalanced effects of shafts in high speed machines are to be closely
looked​ ​into.​ ​why?(M/J-13)
The dynamic forces of centrifugal forces or a result of unbalanced masses
are​ ​a​ ​function​ ​the​ ​angular​ ​velocity​ ​of​ ​rotation.
F​c​​ ​=​ ​mrω​2
ω​ ​=​ ​2πN​ ​/​ ​60
In high speed engines the angular velocity is more hence unbalanced
effect​ ​on​ ​shaft​ ​may​ ​cause​ ​serious​ ​effects.

The maximum magnitude of the unbalanced force along the perpendicular
to​ ​the​ ​line​ ​of​ ​stroke​ ​is​ ​known​ ​as​ ​hammer​ ​blow.
9. Two masses in different planes are necessary to correct the dynamic
unbalance.Justify.​ ​(M/J-12)
If the balancing mass and distributing mass lie in different planes,
disturbing mass cannot be balanced by a single mass as there will be a
couple left unbalanced .In such cases, at least two balancing masses are
required for complete balancing and the three masses are arranged in such a
way​ ​that​ ​the​ ​resultant​ ​force​ ​and​ ​couple​ ​on​ ​the​ ​shaft​ ​are​ ​zero.
10.Write a note on the effect of firing order on balancing of reciprocating
mass​ ​in​ ​multi​ ​cylinder​ ​IC​ ​engines.​ ​(M/J-12,M/J-11)
In multi cylinder engines, there are several possibilities of the order in
which firing takes place. To overcome the problems of vibrations, fuel
distribution, Exhaust distribution, etc. The designers are selecting different
firing​ ​orders.
