Q.1 A rod is made of wrought iron and is secured to the piston by a tapered rod and nut and to the crosshead by a cotter. Determine the diameter of a piston rod for a cylinder of 1.6 m diameter in which the greatest difference of steam pressure on the two sides of the piston is 0.27 N/mm². The length of the rod is 2.9 m. The modulus of elasticity is 212 KN/mm² and the factor of safety is 5.
