During steady-state operation, a parallel –shaft transmission receives 600 kw through the high-speed shaft, but owing to friction and other irreversibilities, delivers 588 kw through the low-speed shaft. the transmission is cooled on its outer surface according to:

q = -ha(ttrans – t.)

where h is the heat transfer coefficient, a is the outer surface area, ttrans is the uniform temperature of the outer surface of the transmission and to is the uniform temperature of the surroundings away from the immediate vicinity of the gearbox.

evaluate the rate of entropy production for :

(a) the gearbox system
(b) an enlarged system consisting of the gearbox and enough of its surroundings that the heat transfer occurs at t0.

let h=0.17 kw/m2-k, a=1.8 m2 and t0=239 k.

Tom is having a problem with his washing machine. he notices that the machine vibrates violently at a frequency of 1500 rpm due to an unknown rotating unbalance. the machine is mounted on 4 springs each having a stiffness of 10 kn/m. tom wishes to add an undamped vibration absorber attached by a spring under the machine the machine working frequency ranges between 800 rpm to 2000 rpm and its total mass while loaded is assumed to be 80 kg. a) what should be the mass of the absorber added to the machine so that the natural frequency falls outside the working range? b) after a first trial of an absorber using a mass of 35 kg, the amplitude of the oscillation was found to be 10 cm. what is the value of the rotating unbalance? c) using me-3.5 kg.m, find the optimal absorber (by minimizing its mass). what would be the amplitude of the oscillation of the absorber?
