Question

A hollow shaft for marine applications has outer and inner diameters of 400 mm and 200 mm 
respectively and transmits 8000 kW at 100 r/min.

If this shaft is connected to a similar shaft, 1 m long, through a 10-bolt rigid flange 
coupling, determine the minimum standard bolt diameter if the pitch circle diameter of 
the coupling is pcd = 450 mm and the allowable shear stress in the bolts should not 
exceed 55 MPa.
1.Determine the equivalent torsional stiffness of the shaft assembly.
