Since the width of a frictional material on a multiple disc clutch is (r₂ - r₁) the inside diameter of the multiple disc clutch is 81 mm
Let
Given that the width of a frictional material on a multiple disc clutch is (r₂ - r₁) and is equal to half of the maximum radius (R), we have that
w = r₂ - r₁ (1)and
w = R/2 (2)
Since R = r₂
w = r₂/2 (3)
Equating equations (1) and (3), we have
r₂ - r₁ = r₂/2
r₁ = r₂ - r₂/2
r₁ = r₂/2
Since the maximum diameter d₂ of the coupling is not to exceed 162 mm, we have that
r₂ = d₂/2
So, r₁ = r₂/2
r₁ = d₂/4
r₁ = 162 mm/4
r₁ = 40.5 mm
Now the inside diameter d₁ = 2r₁
So, d₁ = 2 × 40.5 mm
= 81 mm
So, the inside diameter of the multiple disc clutch is 81 mm
