SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on calculating the diameter of an intermediate shaft in a gearbox supporting two spur gears, with specific bending and torque moments provided. The calculated diameter is 27.53mm, while the actual answer is 27.15mm. The user seeks confirmation on the accuracy of their calculations and any potential mistakes. The bending moment is noted as 133770.56 N.mm and the torque moment as 143000 N.mm.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of mechanical engineering principles, specifically shaft design.
  • Familiarity with bending moment and torque calculations.
  • Knowledge of spur gear mechanics and their impact on shaft dimensions.
  • Ability to interpret engineering problems from textbooks.
NEXT STEPS
  • Review the principles of shaft design in mechanical engineering.
  • Study the calculations for bending moments and torque in detail.
  • Learn about the specifications and applications of spur gears.
  • Examine case studies involving gearbox design and shaft dimensions.
USEFUL FOR

Mechanical engineers, students studying mechanical design, and professionals involved in gearbox design and analysis will benefit from this discussion.

Here is the link to the question:
http://books.google.com.my/books?id... A and B mounted between two bearings&f=falseThe bending moment that I have calculated is 133770.56N.mm
Torque moment,143000N.mm

diameter:27.53mm actual answer 27.15mm

I am not sure if I did it correctly or maybe there is a mistake in the actual answer.Anybody can help shed a light on this matter helps me a a lot.Thanks.

Your link points to an entire book. At least provide a page reference or problem number so we don't have to search the entire tome.
 
Sorry,i missed out the question,its 9.11,page 390 and its already at the page.Thanks.
