Problems for presentation on spur gear

1) A compressor running at 300 rpm is driven by a 15 KW, 1200 rpm motor through a
14½° full depth spur gears. The center distance is 375 mm. The motor pinion is to be
of C30 forged steel hardened (BHN 250) and tempered, and the driven gear is to be of
cast iron. Assuming medium shock condition and minimum number of teeth as 18,
design the gear drive completely. (Roll 1-10)

2) Design a pair of spur gears to transmit 20 KW at a pinion speed of 1400 rpm. The
transmission ratio is 4. Assume 15Ni 2Cr 1 Mo 15 for pinion and C45 for gear.
(Roll 11-20)

3) Design a pair of spur gears to transmit 20 kW at a pinion speed of 1400 rpm. The
transmission ratio is 4.Pinion and gears are made of 15Ni2Cr1Mo15 and C45 steels
respectively. Assume pressure angle 20° and minimum no of teeth 20. (Roll 21-30)

4) A steel spur pinion has a module of 1.25 mm, 18 teeth cut on the 20◦ full-depth system,
and a face width of 12 mm. At a speed of 1800 rev/min, this pinion is expected to carry a
steady load of 0.5 kW. Determine the resulting bending stress. (Roll 31-40)

5) Design a spur gear drive required to transmit 45 kW at a pinion speed of 800 rpm. The
velocity ratio is 3.5:1. The teeth are 20° full depth involute with 18 teeth on pinion.
Both the pinion and gear are accurately hobbed and made of steel with a safe static
stress of 180 N/mm² Assume medium shock conditions. (Roll 41-50)

6) Design a pair of spur gears to transmit 22.5 kW at 900 rpm. Speed reduction is 2.5.
Materials for pinion and wheel are C15 steel and cast iron grade 30 respectively. Take
pressure angle of 20˚ and working life of gears 10,000 hrs. (Roll 51-60)
