Machine Design Problems - DAY 3KEYS

The document discusses several machine design problems related to shafts, keys, couplings, and flywheels. It includes questions about determining the minimum yield point of a key needed to transmit torque from a shaft, calculating the length of a key connecting two gears, calculating the torque capacity of a flanged bolt coupling, determining the maximum shearing stress in bolts of a coupling given an applied torque, calculating the pressure required to punch a hole in steel plate, determining the maximum thickness of a plate that can be punched given the energy and stress, and calculating the rim weight of a flywheel given the energy used to punch a hole and change in rpm.

Machine Design Problems – DAY 3KEYS1. (ME Oct. 1998)A 76.

2 mm diameter shafting of SAE 1040


grade, cold rolled, having a yield point of 50 ksi and with a 3/4 x 3/4 x5 in key. Compute the minimum yield point in
the key in order transmit the torque of the shaft. The factor ofsafety to use is 2 and Sys = 0.5 Sy.2. (ME Bd. Apr. 98)A
keyed gears delivers a torque of 912.4 N-m thru its shaft of 63.5 mm outside diameter. If the
key hasthickness of 15.875 mm and width of 11.1125, find the length of the key. Assume the permissible stress
valuesof 61.2 Mpa for shear and tension at 99.8 Mpa.COUPLING1. (ME Bd. Oct. 97)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 bolt is 50 MN/m2.2. A flange bolt coupling consist of eight 20
mm diameter steel bolts space evenly around a bolt circle 300 mmin diameter. If the coupling is subjected to a torque
of 15.1 KN-m, determine the maximum shearing stress inthe bolts?FLYWHEEL1. (ME Bd. Apr. 95)What pressure
is required to punch a hole 2” diameter through a 1/4” steel plate?2. The kinetic energy needed to punch a hole is 5
KJ. What is the maximum thickness of a hole that can bepunch if hole diameter is 25 mm and ultimate shearing
stress of plate is 420 Mpa.3. The energy required to punch a hole is 3 KJ from a flywheel mean diameter of 800 mm
that slows down from 3.3 rps to 3 rps during punching. If weight of arm and hub account 10% of rim weight,
determine the rim weight.
