A propeller shaft, 45 m long, transmits 10 MW at 80 rev/min. The external diameter of the shaft is 57 cm, and the internal diameter 24 cm. Assuming that the maximum torque is 1.19 times the mean torque, find the maximum shearing stress produced. Find also the relative angular movement of the ends of the shaft when transmitting the average torque.

Propeller Shaft TheEngineersPost.com Page 2 Following are the main parts of the propeller shaft: 1. U-joint 2. Tube 3. Centre bearing 4. Midship shaft 5. End yoke 6. Slip yoke and Tube yoke 7. Flanges 1. U-joint A universal joint (U-joint) is a mechanical joint used to connect rotating shafts. Nowadays, the driveshaft and universal joints are mostly seen on rear-wheel drive and four

The propeller shafts are of tubular construction, having splined slip yokes and universal joints with steel roller bearings. Front propeller shafts have fixed joints while rear propeller shafts have the slip yoke which allows for vari­ ations in distance between rear axle and trans­ mission or center bearing.

Introduction of Propeller Shaft Propeller shaft is connecting the drive from gear box to final drive. Hence it is also called Drive Shaft. OR It is the group of parts connecting the transmission with the drive wheels. It consists of propeller shaft (also called Drive Shaft), Universal Joints/Constant Velocity Joints and Slip Joints. 3.

Design Automation of Marine Propeller Shaft 4th International Conference On Engineering Confluence & Inauguration of Lotfi Zadeh Center of 52 | Page Excellence in Health Science And Technology (LZCODE) – EQUINOX 2.7. Key And Keyways Round ended keys are to be used, and the key ways in the propeller boss and cone of the tailshaft are to

A propeller shaft is an assembly of one or more tubular shaft connected by universal, constant velocity or flexible joints. The number of tubular pieces and the joints depends on the distance between the gearbox and the axle.

The propeller shaft is designed for the given torque keeping in view the allowable stresses and discussed for the following. Where T = the torque to be transmitted by the propeller shaft

The meaning of PROPELLER SHAFT is a shaft that carries a screw propeller at its end and transmits power from engine to propeller.

In this paper six automotive propeller shafts made of different materials are designed. Finite element modeling based on shell element is used in the eigenvalue analysis. Shaft weights, buckling
