Subject: Transportation engineering Problem No.2 Fillet Radius Problem (Airport Engineering) Determine the minimum lead-in and the radius of the fillet to maintain the cockpit over the centerline for an aircraft with a 200.4 ft wingspan (i.e. airplane design group V), a wheelbase of 90.5 ft, undercarriage width of 41.3 ft, and the distance between the main undercarriage and cockpit equal to 95.3 ft. The aircraft is moving between two parallel taxiways through a connecting taxiway which has a centerline perpendicular to the parallel taxiway. (Assume taxiway width is 75 ft, the minimum safety margin is 15 ft, centerline radius is 150 ft).

You are asked to design a plain surface journal bearing to carry a steady radial load of 5.75 kN while the shaft rotates at 950 rpm. The shaft stress analysis determines that an acceptable nominal diameter of the journal is 62.5-mm and an l/d ratio is 1. The shaft is part of a machine requiring good precision. So a minimum radial clearance cmin= 0.040 mm seems appropriate. We shall use SAE 30 oil as a lubricant, at an inlet temperature of 45 oC. Analyze the hypothetical bearing,a) Determine the operating temperature Tave, and operating viscosity μave. b) Determine the minimum film thickness, ho, temperature rise of the lubricant, ΔTC, the total oil flow, Q, and side flow Qs in [mm3/s], the maximum film pressure Pmaxdeveloped in [MPa]. c) Determine the power loss, Hloss in [W], friction torque, Tf in [N-m] d) For minimum radial clearances, perform a design assessment using Trumpler’s criteria.
