Me 308 142 syllabus(2) . Electrical power transformer is a static device which transforms electrical energy from one circuit to another without any direct electrical connection and with the help of mutual induction between two windings. It transforms power from one circuit to another without changing its frequency but may be in different voltage level.

Course Objectives
1. To analyze mechanical systems and select proper machine elements (bearings, gears, springs,
belts and pulleys, chains and sprockets).
2. To design machine elements by specifying their type, geometry, material and heat treatment and
to integrate these elements to build a mechanical system.
3. To learn how to work in a design team and to understand group dynamics
4. To perform a complete design project and communicate the work orally and by writing complete
engineering design reports.
Prerequisites
This is the second course of machine design. In the first course (ME 307), the student is expected
to have learned:
 Stress and deflection analysis
 Buckling
 Static and fatigue failure criteria
 Analysis and design of bolted and welded joints
 Shaft design and analysis
The student is also expected to be able to use AutoCAD or SOLIDWORKS to perform drawings of
machine elements and systems (ME 210).

2. Spur gears
3. Helical worm and bevel gears
4. Strength of Spur and Helical gears
5. Lubrication and journal bearings
6. Clutches, brakes, couplings and flywheels
