Calculation sheet Sluice Gate 2000×3000 of spindle:

Width b = 2000 mm
Height h = 3000 mm
Density ρ= 1000 Kg/m3
Total weight door : Fg = 20500 (N)
Coefficient of f to open: fwo = 0.2
Coefficient of f to close: fws = 0.2
Pressure rating : hw = 7 m
ΔP = (hw - h/2) ·ρ·g = ( 7 – 3/2 ) × 1000 × 9.81828
= 5.5 × 104 (N/m2)
Force on door: Fs = b·h·ΔP
= 2 × 3 ×5.5× 104
= 3.3 × 105 (N)
Force to open door: Fop = Fs·fwo + Fg
= 3.3 × 105× 0.2 + 20500
= 0.86 × 105 ( N )
Force to close door: Fsl = Fs·fws - Fg
= 3.3 × 105× 0.2 - 20500
= 0.46 × 105 ( N )
Calculation of torque:
Spindle diameter ds = 70 mm
Number of spindles ns = 1
Flank diameter : df = 65 mm
Pitch: p = 10 mm
α = 3.04 *π/180
β = 8.83 *π/180
r = 32.5 mm
hd = tan (α+β)·r = tan ( 3.04 *π/180 + 8.83 *π/180 ) × 32.5
= 6.83× 10-3 m

Needed torpue to open door:
Mo = ( hd · Fop )/ns = 6.83× 10-3 ×0.86 × 105 /1 = 587.38( N·m )
Needed torpue to close door:
Ms = ( hd · Fsl )/ns = 6.83× 10-3 ×0.46× 105 /1= 314 ( N·m )
Spur gear: - ratio : itwk = 1
- efficiency : ηtwk = 0.8
Needed torque for actuator:
Open:
Mao = Mo / (itwk ·ηtwk )
= 587 / ( 1×0.8 ) = 734.23 ( N·m )
Close:
Mas = Ms / (itwk ·ηtwk )
= 314/ ( 1×0.8 ) = 392.73 ( N·m )
Calculation spindle:
- opening door:
δt = Fop / ( π·r2·ns )
= 1.2 × 105 / ( 3.14×32.52×1 )
= 25.93( N/mm2 )
- closing door:
Moment actuator in closing direction: Mas = 392.73 N·m

Crushing force spindle: Fk = ( Mas·itwk·ηtwk )/( hd·ns )

= ( 392.73×1×0.8 )/( 6.306× 10-3×1 )
= 4.98× 104 ( N )
Buckling length: Lk = 3200 mm
Moment of inertia: Ix = ( π·(2·r)2 )4 /64
= ( 3.14×(2×32.5)4 ) /64
= 875,796 ( mm4 )
Check the crushing strength of the spindle (Euler):
The E modulus: E = 2.1× 105 ( N/mm2 )

 Fkk = (π2·E·Ix)/ Lk2
= ( 3.142×2.1× 105×875,796 )/ 32002

Spindle diameter: ds = 70 mm
Flank diameter: df = 65 mm
Flank diameter surface : A =π·df2 / 4 = 3317mm2
Moment of inertia: i = ( Ix/A ) 1/2 = (875,796/3317 ) 1/2 = 16.2 (mm)
Slenderness: W = L/i
