Experiments to determine the local convection heat transfer coefficient for uniform flow normal to a heated circular disk have yielded a radial Nusselt number distribution of the form where both n and a are positive. The Nusselt number at the stagnation point is correlated in terms of the Reynolds (ReD VD/ ) and Prandtl numbers Obtain an expression for the average Nusselt number, D D/k, corresponding to heat transfer from an isothermal disk. Typically, boundary layer development from a stagnation point yields a decaying convection coefficient with increasing distance from the stagnation point. Provide a plausible explanation for why the opposite trend is observed for the disk.

Tom is having a problem with his washing machine. he notices that the machine vibrates violently at a frequency of 1500 rpm due to an unknown rotating unbalance. the machine is mounted on 4 springs each having a stiffness of 10 kn/m. tom wishes to add an undamped vibration absorber attached by a spring under the machine the machine working frequency ranges between 800 rpm to 2000 rpm and its total mass while loaded is assumed to be 80 kg a) what should be the mass of the absorber added to the machine so that the natural frequency falls outside the working range? b) after a first trial of an absorber using a mass of 35 kg, the amplitude of the oscillation was found to be 10 cm. what is the value of the rotating unbalance? c) using me-3.5 kg.m, find the optimal absorber (by minimizing its mass). what would be the amplitude of the oscillation of the absorber?
