// Calculating the stress on the ring clc; disp('Example 8.2, Page No. = 8.8') // Given Data rpm = 3000;// Speed in r.p.m. Rm = 0.35;// Radius of overhang (in meter) Rmr = 0.49;// Radius of ring (in meter) G = 300;// Weight of copper winding (in kg) gr = 7800;// Density of ring material (in kg per meter cube) tb = 350*45*10^(-6);// Area of retaining ring // Calculation of the stress on the ring n = rpm/60;// Speed in r.p.s Dm = 2*Rm;// Diameter of overhang (in meter) Dmr = 2*Rmr;// Diameter of ring (in meter) ft = (%pi*n*n*G*Dm/tb)+(%pi*%pi*n*n*gr*Dmr*Dmr);// Stress on ring (in Newton per meter square) disp(ft,'Stress on ring (Newton per meter square)='); //in book answer is 289.5 (MN per meter square).
