Ship Shafting Design Analysis

The document summarizes the calculation of key parameters for a ship's shafting arrangement, including: 1) Propeller RPM of 413 based on the engine speed of 1032 RPM and gear ratio of 2.5. 2) Torque of 30.626 Nm calculated from the engine power of 1324 kW. 3) Propeller shaft diameter of 168 mm determined using the rules for classification of ships and factors like power, speed, material strength. 4) Polar moment of inertia of 0.00007789 m4 for the shaft. 5) Twisting angle of 0.001769 degrees calculated from the torque, shaft length, moment of inertia and shear modulus.

Shafting Arrangement Scantling


Rulebook Followed-BV(2013)
Principal Particulars
Engine Speed (RPM) 1032 RPM
Gear Ratio 2.5
Shaft length, L(m) 6.44m

Max Tensile Stress, (MPa) 600 Mpa

Shear modulus of elasticity, G (Pa) 82 Gpa


Engine Power(1x in KW) 1324 kW

Calculation
1. Propeller RPM
We know,
1032
Propeller RPM, n= 2.5
=412.8 ≅ 413

2. Torque
Engine Power(KW )× 9.5488 1032× 9.5488
Torque,T = Propeller RPM
=
412.8
=30.626 Nm

3. Shaft Diameter
Data From Rulebook-
[From Rules for the Classification of ship 2013, BV Rule]
The diameter of the propeller shaft d P shall not be less than that
calculated from the following formula:


P 1 560
d P=F P ∙ k p 3 ∙ ∙

( )
n d uP 4
RmP +160 [ mm ]
1−
d vP

Where,
 F P=¿ factor for the type of propulsion installation.
¿ 100 for-
 Turbine
 I.C. Engine
 Electric Propulsion Engine
Installations
 k P=¿factor dependent on shaft design features
¿ 1.26 for-
 propeller shafts where the propeller is keyed on the
propeller shaft.
 P=¿rated power of the main engine, [ kW ]
¿ 1324 kW

 n=¿rated speed of propeller shaft,[ rpm ]


¿ 412.8
 d uP=¿diameter of internal longitudinal shaft bore,[mm]

 d vP =¿ outside shaft diameter,[mm]


 Consideration-
If d uP ≤ d vP it may be taken that:-
 1− ( )
d uP 4
d vP
=1.0

 RmP =¿tensile strength of the shaft material[N /mm2 ]

¿ 600[ N /mm ]

Hence we have-


P 1 560
d P=F P ∙ k p 3 ∙ ∙
