A 6cm diameter shaft rotates at 3000rpm in a 20cm long bearing with a uniform clearance of 0.2mm. At steady operating conditions, both the bearing and shaft in the vicinity of the oil gap are 50°C. The thermal conductivity and the viscosity of the lubricating oil are k=0.17 W/m-K and u= 0.05 N-s/m², respectively. By simplifying and solving the differential continuity, momentum and energy equation, determine the maximum temperature of oil. (Hint: Couette flow)
