Description
This
equipment is designed for carrying out the experiment for balancing a
rotation mass system. The apparatus consists of a stainless steel shaft fixed
in a rectangular frame. A set of four blocks with a clamping arrangement is
provided. For static balancing, each block is individually clamped on shaft
and its relative weight is found out using cord and container system in terms
of number of steel balls. For dynamic balancing, a moment polygon is drawn
using relative weights and angular and axial position of blocks is
determined. The block are clamped on shaft is rotated by a motor to check
dynamic balance of the system. The system is provided with angular and
longitudinal scales and is suspended with chains for dynamic balancing.
SCOPE OF EXPERIMENTATIONS:
· To balance the masses
statically and dynamically of a single rotating mass system.
· To observation of effect of
unbalance in a rotating mass system.
UTILITIES REQUIRED:
· Electricity 0.5 kW, 220 V,
Single Phase
TECHNICAL DETAILS:
· Drive Motor
o FHP Motor, variable speed, with
speed controller.
· Balancing weight
o 4 Nos. of Stainless Steel with
different sized eccentric mass for varying unbalance.
· Rotating Shaft
o Material Stainless Steel |
