About this document
Shaft Design for Gear Applications by Ramji Rao is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document provides input values and assumptions to calculate the required shaft diameter and properties for a shaft transmitting power from a 15 HP motor running at 1750 rpm to a single gear with a 4 inch diameter under a load of 20 pounds at a 10 degree pressure angle. The calculations determine the shaft should be 1.375 inches in diameter to withstand the resulting 661.6316 pounds of force and 1654.079 inch-pounds of bending moment while maintaining a safety factor of 2 based on 4140 steel material pr
