2. A single clutch disk (both sides effective) has an outside diameter 1.67 times the inside diameter and is used in an application where 40 hp is produced at 500 rpm . The dry operation clutch material has a friction coefficient of 0.25 and a maximum facing pressure of 20 psi . Based on uniform pressure assumption determine the following (torque reserve is unity);
(a) Inside and outside clutch diameters.
(b) Maximum clamping force.
3. Repeat problem 2 using the uniform wear assumption.
