Question

b) Given an exhaust fan with a mass of 80 kg and operating at 1000 rpm, it generates a cyclic force of 10,000 N on its rigid base. An undamped isolator is to be used to limit the maximum force transmitted to the base to 2000 N. Calculate the stiffness of the isolator that serves the purpose.

Step 1

Given: Fan operating speed = 1000 rpm To convert from rpm to rad/s, we use the conversion factor: 1 rpm = (2π/60) rad/s So, the fan's operating speed in rad/s is: 1000 rpm * (2π/60) rad/s = 104.72 rad/s Show more…
