//To find power absorbed in friction clc //Given: W=20*1000 //N alpha=120/2 //degrees Pn=0.3 //N/mm^2 N=200 //rpm mu=0.1 //Solution: //Calculating the angular speed of the shaft omega=2*%pi*N/60 //rad/s //Calculating the inner radius of the bearing surface r2=sqrt(W/(3*%pi*Pn)) //mm //Calculating the outer radius of the bearing surface r1=2*r2 //mm //Calculating the total frictional torque assuming uniform pressure T=2/3*mu*W*(1/sind(alpha))*(r1^3-r2^3)/(r1^2-r2^2)/1000 //N-m //Calculating the power absorbed in friction P=T*omega/1000 //kW //Results: printf("\n\n Power absorbed in friction, P = %.3f kW.\n\n",P)
