A cone clutch of cone angle 30° is used to transmit a power of
10 kW at 800 rpm. The intensity of pressure between the contact
surfaces is not exceeding 85 kN/m2 . The width of the conical
friction surface is half of the mean radius. If co-efficient of
friction= 0.15, then find the dimensions of the contact surfaces.
Assume uniform wear. Also find the axial load or force required to
hold the clutch while transmitting the power. What is the width of
the friction surface? Determine I. Dimension of contact surfaces
i.e., r1 sand r2 II. Axial force of load required to keep the
clutch engaging
