Chapter 5, Problem 5.5.27P
A small dam of a height h = 6 ft is constructed of vertical wood beams AB, as shown in the figure. The wood beams, which have a thickness I = 2.5 in., are simply supported by horizontal steel beams at A and Ä Construct a graph showing the maximum bending stress tram in the wood beams versus the depth d of the water above the lower support at B. Plot the stress0mas(psi) as the ordinate and the depth d(ft) as the abscissa. Note: The weight density y of water equals 62.4 lb/ft3.

A vertical .2m by .2m square plate is exposed to saturated water vapor at atmospheric pressure. If the surface temperature is 80 degrees C and the flow is laminar, estimate the loal heat transfer coefficents at the middles and at the bottom of the plate.
A transformer that is 10 cm long, 6.2 cm wide, and 5 cm high is to be cooled by attaching a 10 cm by 6.2 cm wide polished aluminum heat sink(emissivity=.03) to its top surface. The heat sink has seven fins, which are 5 mm high, 2mm thick, and 10 cm long. A fan blows air at 25 degrees C parallel to the passages between the fins. The heat sink is to dissipate 12W of heat, and the base temp of the ehat sink is not to exceed 60 degrees C. Assuming the fins and the base plate to be nearly isothermal and the radiation heat transfer to be negligible, determine the minimum free-stream velocity the fan needs to supply to avoid overheating. Assume the flow is laminar over the entire finned surface of the transformer.

The torque of machine varies in a cyclic manner over a period of 2 revolutions. The torque rises from 650 N-m to 2200 N-m uniformly during 110° and remains constant for the following 270°. It then falls uniformly to 600 N-m during the next 100° and remains constant for the end cycle, the cycle being repeated thereafter.
