One of the bearings on a flywheel system is lubricated by oil. The bearing has a diameter of 28.0mm and an axial length of 18.0mm, with a radial clearance of 14.0 micrometers. The kinematic viscosity of the lubricating oil is 2.09 x 10^-5m^2s^-1 and the density is 835kg m^-3.
If the power loss from the bearing is 1.34 kW, calculate the speed of rotation (in revolutions per minute) of the bearing. Give your answer to three significant figures and show all of your workings.

A 25 mm diameter shaft is rotated at 200 rpm in a lubricated cylindrical bearing of diameter 25.5 mm (the figure below). The lubrication oil (SG = 0.86) that fills the gap between the shaft and bearing has an initial kinematic viscosity of 2200 mm2/s. After 5 minutes of running the temperature of the oil increases and the dynamic viscosity decreases by 90 %. Determine the reduction in shaft torque (T) that occurs from startup to after 5 minutes of...

2. A shaft carrying a 10KN load is supported by two identical plain journal bearings. The shaft, which normally rotates at 3000 rev/min has, at the bearing region, a nominal diameter of 50 mm and a length of 16 mm. Starting with a radial clearance ratio of 0.0015 and neglecting thermal effects a) Calculate the temperature of the lubricant which will produce an eccentricity ratio of 0.7 if the oil used is SAE10 b) Comment of the necessity to supply...
