Design a shaft and flange for a Diesel engine in which protected type of flange coupling is to be adopted for power transmission. The following data is available for design: Power of engine = 75 kW; speed of engine = 200 r.p.m.; maximum permissible stress in shaft = 40 MPa; maximum permissible twist in shaft = 1° in length of shaft equal to 30 times the diameter of shaft; maximum torque = 1.25 × mean torque; pitch circle diameter of bolts = 3 × diameter of shaft; maximum permissible stress in bolts = 20 MPa. Find out : 1. Diameter of shaft, 2. number of bolts, and 3. diameter of bolts.
