Question

a) An engine has a flywheel mass of 8-tonnes and a turning radius of 3 m. The energy fluctuation is 70 KN-m.

 The average speed of the engine is 160 rpm. Find the maximum speed value.

 b) A jet engine has a rotor with a weight of 500 N and this rotor rotates at 2400 rpm. Rotor

 It is suspended in the middle of the C and D bearings with a total distance of 600 mm between them and the center of gravity is rotated.

 35 mm above its centre. By calculating the dynamic forces on the bearings, this system

 perform the balancing.
