How many poles should a 60-hz generator have, if it is connected to a turbine operating under a design head of 3000 ft with a flow of 82 cfs? assume turbine specific speed and efficiency 3 and 84 percent respectively.

Afull journal bearing has a journal diameter of 27 mm, with a unilateral tolerance of -0.028 mm. the bushing bore has a diameter of 27.028 mm and a unilateral tolerance of 0.04 mm. the l/d ratio is 0.5. the load is 1.3 kn and the journal runs at 1200 rev/min. if the average viscosity is 50 mpa-s, find the minimum film thickness, the power loss, and the side flow for the minimum clearance assembly.
