Question

How Do You Calculate Shaft Power?​

Answer 1

Shaft Power is the mechanical power transmitted from one rotating element of a vehicle, ship, and all types of machinery to another is calculated using shaft_power = 2*pi*Revolutions per second*Torque. To calculate Shaft power, you need Revolutions per second (ṅ) and Torque (τ).

Answer 2

Shaft power P = (2(pi) * (angular Speed in rpm) * (Torque at shaft))/ 60

Torque of a solid shaft is given by (pi/16)* (Shear stress of material of shaft) * (Dia of shaft3)
