What is the speed of 63.42 mm shaft transmitted 75KW if stress is not to exceed 26MPa

•  
Given: d or diameter of the shaft - 63.42 mm
Ʈ or Stress – 26MPa
P or Power – 75KW

Required: N or speed of the shaft

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.

•  
Given: L or Length- 20d
θ or maximum twist - 1°
T – 2KN-m
G- 80 GPa

Required: d or shaft diameter

Diagram:

Solution: Use the formula for Angle of Twist


θ=
1° x =
d= 0.0663281036m or 66.32810365mm
Therefore the diameter of the shaft is 66.33mm
