Design of Solid and Hollow Shafts

subjected to Different type of Loads

DEPARTMENT OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING

Introduction
Shaft is a rotating member and is used to transmit power. The
shaft may be hollow or solid.
In general, shaft has a circular cross-section.
The shaft is supported on bearings and it rotates a set of gears or
pulleys to transmit power.
The shaft is generally acted upon by
 Bending moment
 Torsion
 axial force.

Other two similar forms of a shaft are axle and spindle.


 Axle is a non-rotating member used for supporting rotating wheels
etc. and do not transmit any torque.
 Spindle is simply a short shaft. However, design method remains
the same for axle and spindle as that for a shaft.

Standard sizes of Shafts and Materials
Typical sizes of solid shaft that are available in the market are
 Up to 25 mm 0.5 mm increments
 25 to 50 mm 1.0 mm increments
 50 to 100 mm 2.0 mm increments
 100 to 200 mm 5.0 mm increments
Material for Shafts are
 ferrous, non-ferrous materials and non metals
depending on the application.
Some ferrous materials used in shafts are
 Hot-rolled plain carbon steel
 Cold-drawn plain carbon/alloy composition
 Alloy steels

Standard sizes of Shafts and Materials
In many cases, the surface of the shaft needs to be wear resistant

 Case hardening and carburizing


 Cyaniding and nitriding

5
Design considerations for shaft
Design based on Strength

 Design is carried out so that stress at any location of the shaft


should not exceed the material yield stress.
 No consideration for shaft deflection and shaft twist is included.

Design based on Stiffness


 The design is based on the allowable deflection and twist of the
shaft.

Bending stress

𝜎𝑏 = 𝜋𝑑 3 (1−𝑘 4 )

M : Bending moment at the point of interest


d : Outer diameter of the shaft
k : Ratio of inner to outer diameters of the
shaft ( k = 0 for a solid shaft because inner diameter is zero )

Axial stress

𝜎𝑎 = 𝜋𝑑 2 (1−𝑘 2 )

F: Axial force (tensile or compressive)


α: Column-action factor(= 1.0 for tensile load)

n = 1.0 for hinged end
n = 2.25 for fixed end
n = 1.6 for ends partly restrained, as in bearing
K = least radius of gyration, L = shaft length
𝜎𝑦𝑐 = yield stress in compression
