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>

Why do we care about a material's ability to resist torsional deformation?
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

(A) Because the angle of twist of a material is often used to predict its shear toughness

Explanation:

In engineering, torsion is the solicitation that occurs when a moment is applied on the longitudinal axis of a construction element or mechanical prism, such as axes or, in general, elements where one dimension predominates over the other two, although it is possible to find it in diverse situations.

The torsion is characterized geometrically because any curve parallel to the axis of the piece is no longer contained in the plane initially formed by the two curves. Instead, a curve parallel to the axis is twisted around it.

The general study of torsion is complicated because under that type of solicitation the cross section of a piece in general is characterized by two phenomena:

1- Tangential tensions appear parallel to the cross section.

2- When the previous tensions are not properly distributed, which always happens unless the section has circular symmetry, sectional warps appear that make the deformed cross sections not flat.

Vikki [24]

Answer:

M_AD = 1359.17 lb-in

Explanation:

Given:

- T_ef = 46 lb

Find:

- Moment of that force T_ef about the line joining points A and D.

Solution:

- Find the position of point E:

                           mag(BC) = sqrt ( 48^2 + 36^2) = 60 in

                           BE / BC = 45 / 60 = 0.75

Hence,                E = < 0.75*48 , 96 , 36*0.75> = < 36 , 96 , 27 > in

- Find unit vector EF:

                           mag(EF) = sqrt ( (21-36)^2 + (96+14)^2 + (57-27)^2 ) = 115 in

                           vec(EF) = < -15 , -110 , 30 >

                           unit(EF) = (1/115) * < -15 , -110 , 30 >

- Tension            T_EF = (46/115) * < -15 , -110 , 30 > = < -6 , -44 , 12 > lb

- Find unit vector AD:

                           mag(AD) = sqrt ( (48)^2 + (-12)^2 + (36)^2 ) = 12*sqrt(26) in

                           vec(AD) = < 48 , -12 , 36 >

                           unit(AD) = (1/12*sqrt(26)) * < 48 , -12 , 36 >

                           unit (AD) = <0.7845 , -0.19612 , 0.58835 >

Next:

                           M_AD = unit(AD) . ( E x T_EF)

                           M_d = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}0.7845&-0.19612&0.58835\\36&96&27\\-6&-44&12\end{array}\right]

                            M_AD = 1835.73 + 116.49528 - 593.0568

                            M_AD = 1359.17 lb-in
