ASSIGNMENT 2 FOR MODULE 3

PMEC2/PMEC2L (Machine Design 2 LEC/LAB)

INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Copy the question below and write your answer/s on a separate sheet of paper
with red margin, half inches all sides; take a picture and paste it in MSWord;
2. Save the file as PDF file (so that it cannot be edited once it is submitted);
3. Save it in your Google Drive (create your personal Google Drive if you don’t have one);
4. Link the assignment file in the Online Text of the PhilCST LMS (do not forget to check
the share permission in your Google Drive);
5. Please do not forget to include your name, course & year, and date of submission
on your answer sheet (short bond paper).
6. Assignments that will not follow the first five (5) instructions will not be accepted by
the LMS / Or will not be credited (corrected) by the instructor.
7. Submit your assignment on or before the deadline (the PhilCST LMS will not accept any
assignment after the deadline); and,
8. Please observe academic honesty (do not submit files that were already submitted by your
classmates).
9. Show complete solution. No solution, no score. Box your final answer.

QUESTION:
1. A flanged bolt coupling consists of eight 20 mm diameter steel bolts space evenly
around a bolt circle 300 mm in diameter. If the coupling is subjected to a torque of
15.1 KN-m, determine the maximum shearing stress in the bolts.

2. A turbine connected to generator by means of flanged coupling that has a bolt

circle diameter of 500 mm. The generator output is 40 MW, 3600 rpm and 90%
efficiency. If there are 16 bolts, determine the force acting on each bolt.

3. A flange coupling is to be designed, using 25 mm diameter bolts at a distance

of 152 mm from the center of the shaft. allowable shearing stress on the bolt
is 103 Mpa. if the shaft is to transmit 5,600 hp at a speed of 1200 rpm, how
many bolts are needed in the connection?

4. A flanged coupling having 180 mm bolt circle and 19 mm thick uses 8 bolts, 16 mm
diameter to connect two shaft. It is used to transmit 60 Kw at 180 rpm. Determine
the factor of safety in bearing if yield point in compression is 448 Mpa.

5. A flange bolt coupling consist of six ½ in steel bolts evenly spaced around a bolt
circle 12 in. in diameter and four ¾ in. aluminum bolts on a concentric bolt circle 8
in. in diameter. What torque in kips-in can be applied without exceeding 9000 psi
in the steel or 6000 psi in the aluminum? Gst = 12x 106 psi and Gal = 4 x106psi.
