Question
Q1:
Design and draw a cast iron flange coupling for a mild steel shaft transmitting 80 kW at 220
rpm with the following specifications:
Allowable shear stress in the shaft = 400 MPa
Permissible angle of twist < 1° in a length of 20 diameters
Allowable shear stress in the coupling bolts 30 MPa
Rigidity modulus of shaft materials = 85 GPa
Allowable shear stress for hub material = 15 MPa
You may adopt, width of key = 25 mm, thickness of key = 14 mm
You may also consider that the shaft and key are made of the same material.
Four number of bolts are to be used in the coupling. Find out the diameter of the shaft required and
main dimensions of the flanges and the key. Adopt suitable dimensions.
Draw a neat sketch for the flange coupling with the designed dimensions.
