Explanation:
a )
Each blade is in the form of rod with axis near one end of the rod
Moment of inertia of one blade
= 1/3 x m l²
where m is mass of the blade
l is length of each blade.
Total moment of moment of 3 blades
= 3 x x m l²
ml²
2 )
Given
m = 5500 kg
l = 45 m
Putting these values we get
moment of inertia of one blade
= 1/3 x 5500 x 45 x 45
= 37.125 x 10⁵ kg.m²
Moment of inertia of 3 blades
= 3 x 37.125 x 10⁵ kg.m²
= 111 .375 x 10⁵ kg.m²
c )
Angular momentum
= I x ω
I is moment of inertia of turbine
ω is angular velocity
ω = 2π f
f is frequency of rotation of blade
d )
I = 111 .375 x 10⁵ kg.m² ( Calculated )
f = 11 rpm ( revolution per minute )
= 11 / 60 revolution per second
ω = 2π f
= 2π x 11 / 60 rad / s
Angular momentum
= I x ω
111 .375 x 10⁵ kg.m² x 2π x 11 / 60 rad / s
= 128.23 x 10⁵ kgm² s⁻¹ .
