PROBLEM 3.67 Using an allowable shearing stress of \( 50 \mathrm{MPa} \), design a solid steel shaft to transmit \( 15 \mathrm{~kW} \) at a frequency of (a) \( 30 \mathrm{~Hz},(b) 60 \mathrm{~Hz} \). SOLUTION \[ \tau_{\text {all }}=50 \mathrm{MPa}=50 \times 10^{6} \mathrm{~Pa} \quad P=15 \mathrm{~kW}=15 \times 10^{3} \mathrm{~W} \] \( (a) \) \[ \begin{aligned} f & =30 \mathrm{~Hz}: \\ T & =\frac{P}{2 \pi f}=\frac{15 \times 10^{3}}{2 \pi(30)}=79.577 \mathrm{~N} \cdot \mathrm{m} \\ \tau & =\frac{T c}{J}=\frac{2 T}{\pi c^{3}} \\ c & =\sqrt[3]{\frac{2 T}{\pi \tau}}=\sqrt[3]{\frac{(2)(79.577)}{\pi\left(50 \times 10^{6}\right)}}=10.0438 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~m}=10.0438 \mathrm{~mm} \end{aligned} \] \( (b) \) \[ d=2 c=20.1 \mathrm{~mm} \] \[ \begin{aligned} f & =60 \mathrm{~Hz} \\ T & =\frac{P}{2 \pi f}=\frac{15 \times 10^{3}}{2 \pi(60)}=39.789 \mathrm{~N} \cdot \mathrm{m} \\ c & =\sqrt[3]{\frac{(2)(39.789)}{\pi\left(50 \times 10^{6}\right)}}=7.9718 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~m}=7.9718 \mathrm{~mm} \end{aligned} \] \[ d=2 c=15.94 \mathrm{~mm} \]

The shaft is made of $\mathrm{A} 992$ steel with the allowable shear stress of $\tau_{\text {allow }}=75$ MPa. If gear $B$ supplies $15 \mathrm{kW}$ of power, while gears $A, C$ and $D$ withdraw $6 \mathrm{kW}, 4 \mathrm{kW}$ and $5 \mathrm{kW}$, respectively, determine the required minimum diameter $d$ of the shaft to the nearest millimeter. Also, find the corresponding angle of twist of gear $A$ relative to gear $D$. The shaft is rotating at 600 rpm.
