Gear reducers ratings

Using Turbines mth Reduction Gears. When gear reducers are connected to steam turbines, the steam rates must be increased ... 

Rotor speed control is an integral part of the process of rate of temperature rise. The modem mixer is generally supplied with variable speed, constant torque electric motors driving via gear reducers or by a hydraulic drive system which has a motor shaft mounted tachometer to control rotor speed. Systems that can monitor, adjust and record the mixer rotor speed provide improvement in resultant compound uniformity. Changes in rotor speed within a cycle can be programmed. 

Let s check the pumping rate of an HE-3 impeller, for the application of Example 10.3, operating at the same HP and close to the same torque. To be entirely fair to the HE-3 impeller, we must make the comparison at constant HP and torque, because the operating cost of an agitator is directly related to HP and the first cost (the capital cost) is closely related to its torque, which primarily determines the gear reducer cost. 

Reducer Ratings. To provide a simple measure of drive capacity, a horsepower rating is used to describe gear capacity. Bearing ratings are given as... 

Ball and roller bearings are selected on the basis of supporting loads equal to the maximum basic rating of the gear reducer and allow a minimum bearing life of 5000 h or an average life of 25,000 h. (See Table P-9.)... 

Thermal ratings of cylindrical worm gears. Thermal ratings above 100- to 200-rpm worm speed represent the input horsepower and output torque that will provide a stabilized 100°F oil-temperature rise over ambient air temperature when the machine is operated continuously. For example, if the ambient air temperature is 70°F, a reducer carr3dng rated thermal horsepower will operate with an average oil... 

Allowable starting load. Worm-gear reducers have a momentary overload strength rating -i- 300 percent of mechanical-wear rating. Peak starting load of the driven machine should not exceed 300 percent of the mechanical-wear rating. 

When the emulsification was complete, the gear pump speed was reduced to the desired level and the flow rates of the emulsion and of the initiator were established. Temperature profiles and pressure drops along the reactor were recorded and the flow rate was measured gravimetrically. 

Specific base catalysis predicted if extent of substrate ionization reduced from almost complete. Effect on rate assuming no change in mechanism is caused steric factors upon substitution at C and C have not been considered. The rate predictions are geared to substituent effects such as those giving rise to Hammett reaction constants on 3- and a-aryl substitution.
