The size of supposing sensitive beam 9 is decided to be (3 * 8 * 34) mm, and promptly the cross section is of a size of (3 * 8) mm.The engine output shaft rotating speed is 3000 rev/mins, and engine capacity is 500 horsepowers.By given data in conjunction with 1 horsepower=735N, can be in the hope of torque:

$T=9550\frac{P}{n}=9550\×\frac{500\×735}{3000}=1170N\·M---\left(1\right)$

Consider that turning axle is 45 steel, checks in G=80GPa

Second polar moment of area is

$I_p=\frac{{\mathrm{\&pi;<figure-callout\; id="4"\; label="D"\; filenames="S2007201027327E00011.png"\; state="\{\{state\}\}">D</figure-callout>}}^4}{32}=\frac{\mathrm{\&pi;}\&times;{(50\&times;{10}^{-3})}^4}{32}=6.13\&times;{10}^{-7}{m}^4---\left(2\right)$

The angle of twist per unit length is

$F=\frac{T}{r}=\frac{1170/2}{55\&times;{10}^3}=10636N---\left(9\right)$

Thereby have

F ₂＝1.2F＝1.2×10636＝12763N (10)

By

${\mathrm{\&sigma;}}_{\mathrm{ca}}=\frac{1.3{\mathrm{<figure-callout\; id="2"\; label="F"\; filenames="S2007201027327E00011.png"\; state="\{\{state\}\}">F</figure-callout>}}_2}{\frac{\mathrm{\&pi;}}{4}{\mathrm{<figure-callout\; id="2"\; label="d"\; filenames="S2007201027327E00011.png"\; state="\{\{state\}\}">d</figure-callout>}}^2}\&le;\left[\mathrm{\&sigma;}\right]---\left(11\right)$

Can get

$d\&GreaterEqual;\sqrt{\frac{4\&times;{1.3\mathrm{<figure-callout\; id="2"\; label="F"\; filenames="S2007201027327E00011.png"\; state="\{\{state\}\}">F</figure-callout>}}_2}{\mathrm{\&pi;}\left[\mathrm{\&sigma;}\right]}}=\sqrt{\frac{4\&times;1.3\&times;12763}{3.14\&times;600}}=5.94\mathrm{mm}---\left(12\right)$
