Tutorial 9

1. An exhaust fan, rotating at 1000 rpm, is to be supported by four springs, each


having a stiffness of K. If only 10 percent of the unbalanced force of the fan is to
be transmitted to the base, what should be the value of K? Assume the mass of
the exhaust fan to be 40 kg.

2. A 50-kg mass is subjected to the harmonic force F(t) = 1000 cos 120t N. Design
an undamped isolator so that the force transmitted to the base does not exceed
5% of the applied force. Also, find the displacement amplitude of the mass of the
system with isolation.

3. A vibrating system is to be isolated from its vibrating base. Find the required
damping ratio that must be achieved by the isolator to limit the displacement
transmissibility to T d = 4. Assume the system to have a single degree of
freedom.

4. An electronic instrument is to be isolated from a panel that vibrates at


frequencies ranging from 25 Hz to 35 Hz. It is estimated that at least 80 percent
vibration isolation must be achieved to prevent damage to the instrument. If the
instrument weights 85 N, find the necessary static deflection of the isolator.

5. An exhaust fan, having a small unbalance, weights 800 N and operates at a


speed of 600 rpm. It is desired to limit the response to a transmissibility of 2.5 as
the fan passes through resonance during start-up. In addition, an isolation of 90
percent is to be achieved at the operating speed of the fan. Design a suitable
isolator for the fan.

6. A dishwashing machine weighing 68.03 kg operates at 300 rpm. Find the


minimum static deflection of an isolator that provides 60 percent isolation.
Assume that the damping in the isolator is negligible.

7. A washing machine of mass 50 kg operates at 1200 rpm. Find the maximum


stiffness of an isolator that provides 75 percent isolation. Assume that the
damping ratio of the isolator is 7 percent.
