Chapter 3 Problem 3.83

Question

A 1.5-m-long tubular steel shaft of 38-mm outer diameter \(d_{1}\) is to be made of a steel for which \(\tau_{\text {all }}=65 \mathrm{MPa}) and G = 77.2 GPa. Knowing that the angle of twist must not exceed \(4^{\circ}\) when the shaft is subjected to a torque of \(600 \mathrm{~N} \cdot \mathrm{m}\), determine the largest inner diameter \(d_{2}\) that can be specified in the design.

Solution

Step 1 of 6)

The first step in solving 3 problem number 83 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: A 1.5-m-long tubular steel shaft of 38-mm outer diameter \(d_{1}\) is to be made of a steel for which \(\tau_{\text {all }}=65 \mathrm{MPa}) and G = 77.2 GPa. Knowing that the angle of twist must not exceed \(4^{\circ}\) when the shaft is subjected to a torque of \(600 \mathrm{~N} \cdot \mathrm{m}\), determine the largest inner diameter \(d_{2}\) that can be specified in the design.
From the textbook chapter Torsion you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
