Given: d or diameter of the shaft - 63.42 mm
Ʈ or Stress – 26MPa
P or Power – 75KW
Diagram:
Solution: Using the formula for Shear Stress to solve for the torsion.
Ʈ=
=
T = 1302.212774 Nm
•
Use the Formula for Power, to solve for Speed
P=
Substitute the given values
75000W =
N= 549.9848093 rpm
Therefore the speed of the rotation of the shaft is 549.9848093rpm or approximately 550rpm
PROBLEM NO.10
The shaft of a motor has a length 20 times its diameter and has a maximum twist of 1 degrees when
twisted at 2KN-m torque. If the modulus of rigidity of the shaft is 80 GPa, find the shaft diameter.
