Question: A solid circular shaft has to transmit 1 5 0 kW of power at 2 0 0 rpm . If the allowable shear stress is

A solid circular shaft has to transmit 150 kW of power at 200 rpm . If the allowable shear stress is 75 MPa and permissible twist is 1 in a length of 3 m , find the diameter of the shaft. Take G =82 GPa .
A shaft is required to transmit 245 kW power at 240 rpm . The maximum torque is 50% more than the mean torque. The shear stress in the shaft is not to exceed 40Nmm2 and the twist 1 per meter length. Taking G=80kNmm2, determine the diameter required if, a.) the shaft is solid. b.) the shaft is hollow with external diameter twice the internal diameter.
A power of 2.2MW has to be transmitted at 60r.p.m. If the allowable stress in the material of the shaft is 85 MPa , find the required diameter of the shaft, if it is solid. If instead, a hollow shaft is used with 3DE=4D1, calculate the percentage saving in weight per meter length of the shaft. Density of the shaft material is 7800kgm3.
A solid circular shaft has to transmit 1 5 0 kW
