Chapter 2, Problem 40P
A 73-mm-diameter aluminum (SG = 2.64) piston of 100-mm length resides in a stationary 75-mm-inner-diameter steel tube lined with SAE 10W-30 oil at 25°C. A mass m = 2 kg is suspended from the free end of the piston. The piston is set into motion by cutting a support cord. What is the terminal velocity of mass m? Assume a linear velocity profile within the oil.

The rotating parts of a hydroelectric power plant having power capacity W . have a rotational synchronous speed n .. The weight of the rotating parts (the hydroturbine and its electric generator) is supported in a thrust bearing having annular form between D and d diameters as sketched. The thrust bearing is operated with a very thin oil film of thickness e and dynamic viscosity ? . It is assumed that the oil is a Newtonian fluid and the velocity is approximated as linear in the bearing. Calculate the ratio of lost power in the thrust bearing to the produced power in the hydraulic power plant. Use W . = 48.6 MW, ? = 0.035 Pa⋅s, n . = 500 rpm, e = 0.25 mm, D = 3.2 m, and d = 2.4 m.
SAE-10 oil at 20 deg C fills the gap between the moving 6 cm diameter long cylinder which is inside a fixed outer cylinder 6.8 cm diameter. Calculate the pressure gradient per unit length needed so the shear stress on the outer cylinder is exactly equal to zero when the inner cylinder is moving with velocity V=4 m/s in the negative z-direction. Assume laminar flow. The viscosity of the oil is 99.2 cp. Express your result in kPa/m and round your numerical answer to a whole number
In an oil pool, a small steel ball is released from the surface (y=0) without initial velocity. The strength of the resistance force exerted by the oil against the movement of the ball is directly proportional to the speed of the ball (Fd = k*V , k: constant). Neglect the buoyant force exerted by the oil. (m = 0.2kg, k = 0.843550 kg/s, g = 9.81 m/s^2).
a-) What is the limit speed of ball ( Vlim)?
b-) What is the time it takes for the speed of the ball to reach 99% of the limit speed after it is released from the surface?
c-) What is the depth at which the ball's velocity reaches 99% of the limit velocity after it is released from the surface?
