The impeller shaft of a fluid agitator transmits 28 kW at 440 rpm. If the allowable shear stress in the impeller shaft must be l

imited to 80 MPa, determine(a) the minimum diameter required for a solid impeller shaft.(b) the maximum inside diameter permitted for a hollow impeller shaft if the outside diameter is 40 mm.(c) the percent savings in weight realized if the hollow shaft is used instead of the solid shaft. (Hint: The weight of a shaft is proportional to its cross-sectional area.)

Answer:

<em>a) 34 mm</em>

<em>b) 39 mm</em>

<em>c) 93.16%</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

power transmitted P = 28 kW 28000 W

angular speed N = 440 rpm

angular speed in rad/s Ω = 2\piN/60

Ω = (2 x 3.142 x 440)/60 = 46.08 rad/s

allowable shear stress τ = 80 MPa = 80 x 10^{6} Pa

torque T = P/Ω = 28000/46.08 = 607.64 N-m

a)  for the minimum diameter of a solid shaft, we use the equation

τd^{3}= \frac{16T}{ \pi}

80 x 10^{6} x d^{3} =  \frac{16*607.64}{3.142} = 3094.28

d^{3} = 3094.28/(80 x 10^{6}) = 0.0000386785

d = \sqrt[3]{0.0000386785} ≅ 0.034 m =<em> 34 mm</em>

<em></em>

b) For a hollow shaft with outside diameter D = 40 mm = 0.04 m

we use the equation,

T = \frac{16}{\pi } x τ x \frac{D^{4} - d^{4}}{D^{4} }

where d is the internal diameter of the pipe

607.64 =  \frac{16}{3.142} x 80 x 10^{6} x  \frac{0.04^{4} - d^{4}}{0.04^{4} }

3.82 x 10^{-12} = 0.04^{4} - d^{4}

d^{4} = \sqrt[4]{2.56*10^{-6} }

d = 0.039 m = <em>39 mm</em>

<em></em>

c) <em>we assume weight is proportional to cross-sectional area</em>

<em></em>

for solid shaft,

area = \pi r^{2}

r = diameter/2 = 34/2 = 17 mm

area = 3.142 x 17^{2} = 907.92 mm^2

for hollow shaft, radius is also gotten as before

external area =  \pi r^{2} = 3.142 x 20^{2} = 1256.64 mm^2

internal diameter =  \pi r^{2}  = 3.142 x 19.5^{2} = 1194.59 mm^2

<em>true area of hollow shaft = external area minus internal area</em>

area = 1256.64 - 1194.59 = 62.05 mm^2

material weight saved is proportional to 907.92 - 62.05 = 845.87 mm^2

percentage weight saved is proportional to  845.87/907.92 x 100%

= <em>93.15%</em>

The importance of reading a circuit diagram to interpret a wiring diagram?
Nataly [62]

Answer:

The ability to read electrical schematics is a really useful skill to have. To start developing your schematic reading abilities, it's important to memorize the most common schematic symbols. ... You should also be able to get a rough idea of how the circuit works, just by looking at the schematic.

What is the basic molecular mechanism for polymer plasticity, and how does it differ from that of ductile crystalline metals?
sdas [7]

Answer:

In Crystalline metals or materials, plasticity is examined from the perspective of the motion of linear defects or dislocations within the polymer chains.

Explanation:

When a temperature range below and near the glass transition temperature is reached, there is warping or contortion of structureless or malformed polymers. This warping happens as the polymer chains move over one another.

Unlike elasticity when requires or enables an object to resume its original dimensions, ductility is the quality of an element or material to change form albeit permanently.

Cheers

Schach [20]

Answer:

(C) 29°

Explanation:

ACME THREAD ANGLE : it is the angle measured between the thread axis and thread the thread flanks, with the help of thread angle we calculate the shape of screw thread it is the mean of v thread and square thread  the acme thread angle is denoted by β every thread has its own charactersistics which depends on the pitch and diameter of the thread
