The rotating parts of a hydroelectric power plant having power capacity W . have a rotational synchronous speed n .. The weight of the rotating parts (the hydroturbine and its electric generator) is supported in a thrust bearing having annular form between D and d diameters as sketched. The thrust bearing is operated with a very thin oil film of thickness e and dynamic viscosity ? . It is assumed that the oil is a Newtonian fluid and the velocity is approximated as linear in the bearing. Calculate the ratio of lost power in the thrust bearing to the produced power in the hydraulic power plant. Use W . = 48.6 MW, ? = 0.035 Pa⋅s, n . = 500 rpm, e = 0.25 mm, D = 3.2 m, and d = 2.4 m.

A steel tape 0.5 mm thick and 20 mm wide is pulled by a force ? through a slit opening 1.5 mm and length 15 mm. Considering that the tape is centered on the slit, that lubricating oil of viscosity µ = 0.4 ??-2? fills the gap spaces not occupied by the tape and that the maximum tape speed is 10 m/s, calculate the maximum force ? .

A square block weighing 1.1 kN and 250 mm on an edge slides down an incline on a film of oil 6 micrometer thick. Assuming a linear velocity profile in the oil and neglecting air resistance, what is the terminal velocity of the block in m/s? The viscosity of oil is 7mPa-s and the angle of inclination is 20deg.
