Question: A shaft is to be designed for transmitting 1 2 0 k W power at 5 0 0 rpm . The shaft is supported by

A shaft is to be designed for transmitting 120kW power at 500 rpm. The shaft is supported by
bearings 3m apart and at 1m from one bearing (A) a pulley exerting a downward transverse
load of 3KN on the shaft. Determine the following:
The reactions at the bearing
The transmitted torque
The maximum bending moment
The diameter of the shaft (of circular solid section) if the maximum principal stress is not to
exceed 500MPa
The diameter of the shaft (of circular solid section) if the permissible stress is not to exceed
600 MPa
Consider a diameter for the section AC of dAC=70mm and for the section CBdCB=75mm.
Determine the slope at A, the slope at B and the deflection at C.E=200GPa
