.A hollow steel shaft transmits 600 kW at 500 r.p.m. The maximum shear stress is 62.4 MPa. Find the outside and inside diameter of the shaft, if the outer diameter is twice of inside diameter, assuming that the maximum torque is 20% greater than the mean torque.
1.A hollow steel shaft transmits 600 kW at 500 r.p.m. The maximum shear stress is 62.4 MPa. Find the outside and inside diameter of the shaft, if the outer diameter is twice of inside diameter, assuming that the maximum torque is 20% greater than the mean torque.
2. A motor car shaft consists of a steel tube 30 mm internal diameter and 4 mm thick. The engine develops 10 kW at 2000 r.p.m. Find the maximum shear stress in the tube when the power is transmitted through a 4 : 1 gearing.
3.A line shaft rotating at 200 r.p.m. is to transmit 20 kW. The allowable shear stress for the material ofthe shaft is 42 MPa. If the shaft carries a central load of 900 N and is simply supported between bearing 3 metre apart, determine the diameter of the shaft. The maximum tensile or compressive stress is not to exceed 56 MPa.
4.A cast gear wheel is driven by a pinion and transmits 100 kW at 375 r.p.m. The gear has 200 machine cut teeth having 20° pressure angle and is mounted at the centre of a 0.4 m long shaft. The gear weighs 2000N and its pitch circle diameter is 1.2 m. Design the gear shaft. Assume that the axes of the gear and pinion lie in the same horizontal plane.
5.A horizontal shaft AD supported in bearings at A and B and carrying pulleys at C and D is to transmit 75 kW at 500 r.p.m. from drive pulley D to off-take pulley C, as shown in Fig. 14.18.Calculate the diameter of shaft. The data given is : P1 = 2 P2 (both horizontal), Q1 = 2 Q2 (both vertical), radius of pulley C = 220 mm, radius of pulley D = 160 mm, allowable shear stress = 45 MPa
