A cross bar of a planer weighing 9 kN is raised and lowered by means of two square threaded screws
of 40 mm outside diameter and 6 mm pitch. The screw is made of steel and nut of phosphor bronze
having 42 mm height. A steel collar bearing with 30 mm mean radius takes the axial thrust. The
coefficient of friction at the threads and at the collar may be assumed as 0.14 and 0.10 respectively.
Find the force required at a radius of 120 mm of a handwheel to raise and lower the load. Find also the
shear stress in the nut material and the bearing pressure on the threads.

Charlie Chaplin’s Modern Times offers a parody of the assembly line grounded in real events. identify two scenes from the movie (you can either describe them briefly or use screen shots) that capture historical realities and one that you believe is an unwarranted exaggeration.

A system for the storage of thermal energy is to be designed using an underground tank of water. The tank is buried at a depth of 3 m and is a cube of 1 m on each side. The water in the tank is heated by circulating it through a solar energy collection system. A given heat input to the water may be assumed due to the solar energy flux. Characterize the design problem in terms of the fixed quantities and design variables. please solve and explain

NOTE: What would the anwser be if it was a square plate with a circular hole?

The metallic, circular plate of diameter D and thickness t, has a concentric hole of diameter h in its middle, as shown. Metal density is ? = 8000 kg/m3 ; D = 5 cm.

1) When h = 0 (no hole), determine the maximum thickness t [in mm] so that the plate can stay afloat on the surface of water at 20°C.

2) The plate’s thickness is now 1 mm. Show that, in order for the plate to stay afloat on water surface, the hole’s diameter h satisfies a quadratic equation of the form h2 + Ah + B = 0, where A and B are constants. Using S.I. units [m, kg, s] and with h in m, determine the numerical values of A and B.

An interesting flow results from superposition of a point source with strength m located at the origin and a uniform flow of strength U. Find the complex potential for this flow combination and graph the streamlines. Then, find the stagnation points and find the streamfunction at the stagnation point.

A refrigerant (R-134 A) at 0.8 MPa and 30 deg Celcius is throttled in a steady flow to a lower pressure and a temperature of -10 deg Celcius. What is the specific entropy generated? You can make the usual assumptions that are made for a throttle.

An oil cooler is in the form of a single shell 4 tube heat exchanger in which oil passes through the tubes and cool water passes through the shell. Water comes in at 15C and leaves at 25C and has a mass flow rate of 20 kg/min. Oil enters at 35C with a mass flow rate of 30 kg/min. C_p of oil is 2.13 kJ/KgC and that of water is 4.18 kJ/kgC. If the surface area of the heat exchanger is 0.5 m², calculate the overall heat transfer coefficient. Assume the heat exchanger is adiabatic with regards to the surroundings.
