Question

Calculate the side thrust when μ=0.1, D=85mm and Pmax=4N/mm^2?

(a) 2269.8N/mm^2

(b) 100N/mm^2

(c) 3264N/mm^2

(d) 4563.4N/mm^2

This question was posed to me during an interview.

I need to ask this question from IC Engine in division Design of IC Engine Components of Automotive Engine Design

Answer 1

Right option is (a) 2269.8N/mm^2

The best I can explain: Side thrust=μ\((\frac{\pi D^2}{4})P_{max}\)

                                          =0.1×\((\frac{\pi\times 85^2}{4})\times 4\)

                                          = 2269.8N/mm^2
