Consider the following data relating to a horizontal reciprocating engine. Weight of reciprocating parts -125 kg, weight of connecting rod -100 kg, length of stroke -20 cm, length of connecting rod between centres -40 cm, radius of gyration of connecting rod about an axis through centre of gravity -12 cm, distance of centre of gravity of the connecting rod from big end bearing centre -16cm, engine speed -750 rpm. Find the resultant inertia torque on the crankshaft when the crank has turned 30 from the inner dead centre. Consider connecting rod mass is put at the gudgeon pin centre and crank pin centre.
