How to find the maximum rpm of the solid shaft that has a ring mounted on it?

AI Thread Summary
To determine the maximum RPM at which a ring mounted on a solid shaft with a 0.002" interference fit will remain secure, it is essential to consider factors such as thermal expansion and material properties. Running the shaft at 7000 RPM and 400 degrees Celsius raises concerns about the adequacy of the interference fit, especially if the shaft and ring are made from different materials. Differential thermal expansion could cause the ring to loosen, impacting its stability at high speeds. Calculating the thermal expansion and the forces acting on the ring at elevated temperatures will help assess whether the fit is sufficient. Understanding these dynamics is crucial for ensuring the ring remains securely attached during operation.

Hello,

I have to find the maximum rpm of the shaft that has ring mounted on the shaft with interference fit of 0.002". I want to know at what rpm the ring will come loose from the shaft?

and

If I run the shaft at 7000rpm at 400 degree Celsius, is the interference fit of 002" enough for the ring to hold on to the shaft? How can I find out if it is adequate or not?

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Angular velocity will have no bearing on whether the collar will stay on the shaft. Differential thermal expansion could play a part though, if the two parts are made of different materials.
 
Posted June 2024 - 15 years after starting this class. I have learned a whole lot. To get to the short course on making your stock car, late model, hobby stock E-mod handle, look at the index below.

I'm trying to decide what size and type of galvanized steel I need for 2 cantilever extensions. The cantilever is 5 ft. The space between the two cantilever arms is a 17 ft Gap the center 7 ft of the 17 ft Gap we'll need to Bear approximately 17,000 lb spread evenly from the front of the cantilever to the back of the cantilever over 5 ft. I will put support beams across these cantilever arms to support the load evenly
Thread 'What's the most likely cause for this carbon seal crack?'
We have a molded carbon graphite seal that is used in an inline axial piston, variable displacement hydraulic pump. One of our customers reported that, when using the “A” parts in the past, they only needed to replace them due to normal wear. However, after switching to our parts, the replacement cycle seems to be much shorter due to “broken” or “cracked” failures. This issue was identified after hydraulic fluid leakage was observed. According to their records, the same problem has occurred...
