Design and Analysis of a Propeller Shaft in CAE tool and ANSYS

Abstract

A Propeller Shaft is a device on which a propeller is attached to and transfers the power from the engine to the propeller. In the design of automobiles, the industry is exploiting in order to obtain reduction of weight without significant decrease in vehicle quality and reliability. This is due to the fact that the reduction of weight of a vehicle directly impacts its fuel consumption. Particularly in city driving, the reduction of weight is almost directly proportional to fuel consumption of the vehicle. A Propeller Shaft is a longitudinal drive shaft used in vehicles where the engine is suited at the opposite end of the vehicle to the drive wheels. A propeller shaft is an assembly of one or more tubular shaft connected by universal, constant velocity or flexible joints. Thus, in this project work the propeller shaft of a vehicle was chosen and analyzed by replacing it with different materials.
