Problem Set 6
1. A steel shaft of diameter 2.5 cm and length 1 m is supported at the two ends in bearings. It carries
a turbine disc, of mass 20 kg and eccentricity 0.005 m, at the middle and operates at 6000 rpm. The
damping in the system is equivalent to viscous damping with 𝜁 = 0.01. Determine the whirl
amplitude of the disc at (a) operating speed, (b) critical speed, and (c) 1.5 times the critical speed.

2. Find the bearing reactions and the maximum bending stress induced in the shaft at (a) operating
speed, (b) critical speed, and (c) 1.5 times the critical speed for the shaft-rotor system described
in Prob. 1.
