This document discusses seven problems involving determining properties of flanged bolt couplings. The problems involve calculating torque capacity, maximum shearing stress, factor of safety, force per bolt, required bolt circle diameter, bolt diameter, and required flange thickness. The couplings transmit power between shafts using bolts arranged around a bolt circle and transmitting torque, force, or power at various rpm.

COUPLINGS

1.) A flanged bolt coupling has ten (10) steel 25.4 mm diameter bolts evenly tighten around a 415 mm bolt circle. Determine the torque capacity of the connection if the allowable shearing stress in the bolts 50N/m2. (ans. 52.6 kn-m) A flanged bolt coupling consist of eight 20 mm diameter steel bolts space evenly around a bolt circle 300 mm in diameter. If the coupling is subjected to a torque of 15.1 KN-m, determine the maximum shearing stress in the bolts. (ans.40 mpa) A flanged coupling having 180 mm bolt circle and 19 mm thick uses 8 bolts, 16 mm diameter to connect two shafts it use to transmit 60 KW at 180 rpm. Determine the factor of safety in bearing if yield point in compression is 448 Mpa.(ans. 30.8) A turbine is connected to a generator by means of flange coupling that has a bolt circle diameter of 50 mm. The generator output is 40 MW, 3600 rpm and 90% efficiency. If there are 16 bolts, determine the force acting on each bolt. (ans.29.47kn) A 75 mm diameter shaft is transmitting 300 KW at 600 rpm. A solid coupling has 6 bolts each 18 mm in diameter. Find the required bolt circle if shearing stress in bolt is 27.5 Mpa.(ans. 227.40 mm) The total force or 125 KN required of flange coupling that has 5 bolts has also shearing of 30 Mpa for bolt. Determine the required diameter of bolt.(ans.32.57 kn) A flanged coupling with bolt circle diameter of 250 mm uses 8 bolts, 25 mm diameter. The torque transmitted is 15 KN-m and compressive stress of bolt is 15 Mpa. Determine the required flange thickness.(ans.40 mm)
