Diameter of Spigot of Cotter Joint given Shear Stress in Spigot Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Diameter of Spigot = (Load on Cotter Joint)/(2*Gap between End of Slot to End of Spigot*Shear Stress in Spigot)
d₂ = (L)/(2*L_a*τ_sp)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Diameter of Spigot - (Measured in Meter) - The diameter of Spigot is defined as the diameter of the external surface of the spigot or the inner diameter of the socket.
Load on Cotter Joint - (Measured in Newton) - Load on cotter joint is basically the amount of load/force any part or joint, can bear or is acted upon or exerts.
Gap between End of Slot to End of Spigot - (Measured in Meter) - Gap between End of Slot to End of Spigot is the distance between the end of slot for cotter to the end of spigot opposite from its collar.
Shear Stress in Spigot - (Measured in Pascal) - Shear Stress in Spigot is the amount of stress (cause deformation by slippage along a plane parallel to the imposed stress) generated into the socket due to the shear force acting on it.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Load on Cotter Joint: 50000 Newton --> 50000 Newton No Conversion Required
Gap between End of Slot to End of Spigot: 23.5 Millimeter --> 0.0235 Meter (Check conversion here)
Shear Stress in Spigot: 26.596 Newton per Square Millimeter --> 26596000 Pascal (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

d₂ = (L)/(2*L_a*τ_sp) --> (50000)/(2*0.0235*26596000)

Evaluating ... ...

d₂ = 0.0399996160036864

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.0399996160036864 Meter -->39.9996160036864 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

39.9996160036864 ≈ 39.99962 Millimeter <-- Diameter of Spigot

Loads supported by a cotter joint.

Cotter joints are used to support axial loads between the two rods, tensile or compressive. Although a cotter joint will resist the rotation of one rod relative to the other, it should not be used to join rotating shafts. This is because the cotter will not be balanced and may work loose under the combination of vibration and centrifugal force.
