1. Design for hub
First of all, let us find the diameter of the shaft (d). We know that the torque transmitted by the
shaft,

π= 159.13 N-m
Since the service factor is 1.35, therefore the maximum torque transmitted by the shaft,
Tmax = 1.35 × 159.13 = 215 N-m = 215 × 103 N-mm
We know that the torque transmitted by the shaft (T),
215 × 103 = 3 40 3
16 16 s d d
τπ= 7.86 d 3
∴d 3 = 215 × 103 / 7.86 = 27.4 × 103 or d = 30.1 say 35 mm Ans.
We know that outer diameter of the hub,
D = 2d = 2 × 35 = 70 mm Ans.
and length of hub, L = 1.5 d = 1.5 × 35 = 52.5 mm Ans.
Let us now check the induced shear stress for the hub material which is cast iron. Considering
the hub as a hollow shaft. We know that the maximum torque transmitted (Tmax).
215 × 103 =

= 63 147 c
∴c = 215 × 103/63 147 = 3.4 N/mm2 = 3.4 MPa
Since the induced shear stress for the hub material (i.e. cast iron) is less than the permissible
value of 8 MPa, therefore the design of hub is safe.
2. Design for key
Since the crushing stress for the key material is twice its shear stress (i.e. ck = 2k ), therefore a
square key may be used. From Table 13.1, we find that for a shaft of 35 mm diameter,
Width of key, w = 12 mm Ans.
and thickness of key, t = w = 12 mm Ans.
The length of key ( l ) is taken equal to the length of hub.
∴l = L = 52.5 mm Ans.
Let us now check the induced stresses in the key by considering it in shearing and crushing.
Considering the key in shearing. We know that the maximum torque transmitted (Tmax),

∴k = 215 × 103/11 025 = 19.5 N/mm2 = 19.5 MPa
Considering the key in crushing. We know that the maximum torque transmitted (Tmax),
215 × 103 =

lσσ= 5512.5 ck
∴ck = 215 × 103/ 5512.5 = 39 N/mm2 = 39 MPa
Since the induced shear and crushing stresses in the key are less than the permissible stresses,
therefore the design for key is safe.
3. Design for flange
The thickness of flange (tf) is taken as 0.5 d.
∴tf = 0.5 d = 0.5 × 35 = 17.5 mm Ans.
Let us now check the induced shearing stress in the flange by considering the flange at the
junction of the hub in shear.
We know that the maximum torque transmitted (Tmax),
215 × 103 =

∴c = 215 × 103/134 713 = 1.6 N/mm2 = 1.6 MPa
Since the induced shear stress in the flange is less than 8 MPa, therefore the design of flange is
safe.
4. Design for bolts
Let d1 = Nominal diameter of bolts.
Since the diameter of the shaft is 35 mm, therefore let us take the number of bolts,
n=3
and pitch circle diameter of bolts,
D1 = 3d = 3 × 35 = 105 mm
The bolts are subjected to shear stress due to the torque transmitted. We know that the
maximum torque transmitted (Tmax),

∴(d1)2 = 215 × 103/4950 = 43.43 or d1 = 6.6 mm
Assuming coarse threads, the nearest standard size of bolt is M 8. Ans.
Other proportions of the flange are taken as follows :
Outer diameter of the flange,
D2 = 4 d = 4 × 35 = 140 mm Ans.
Thickness of the protective circumferential flange,
tp = 0.25 d = 0.25 × 35 = 8.75 say 10 mm Ans.
