How to find K
We will use this value for steady torsional shear stress or vertical shear stress in shafts.
Design Factor, N
We will use N = 2.0 for typical shaft designs where there is average confidence in the data for material strength and loads.
Example
Design the shaft shown in Figures. It is to be machined from AISI 1144 OQT 1000 steel. The shaft is part of the drive for a large blower system supplying air to a furnace. Gear A receives 200 hp from gear P. Gear C delivers the power to gear Q. The shaft rotates at 600 rpm.
