Number of Threads in Engagement with Nut given Transverse Shear Stress at Root of Nut Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Number of Engaged Threads = Axial load on screw/(pi*Nominal diameter of screw*Transverse shear stress in nut*Thread Thickness)
z = W_a/(pi*d*t_n*t)
This formula uses 1 Constants, 5 Variables

Constants Used

pi - Archimedes' constant Value Taken As 3.14159265358979323846264338327950288

Variables Used

Number of Engaged Threads - A number of Engaged Threads of a screw/bolt are the count of threads of the screw/bolt that are currently in engagement with the nut.
Axial load on screw - (Measured in Newton) - Axial load on screw is the instantaneous load applied to the screw along its axis.
Nominal diameter of screw - (Measured in Meter) - Nominal diameter of screw is defined as the diameter of the cylinder touching the external threads of the screw.
Transverse shear stress in nut - (Measured in Pascal) - Transverse shear stress in nut is the resistance force developed per unit cross-sectional area by the nut to avoid transverse deformation.
Thread Thickness - (Measured in Meter) - Thread Thickness is defined as the thickness of a single thread.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Axial load on screw: 131000 Newton --> 131000 Newton No Conversion Required
Nominal diameter of screw: 50 Millimeter --> 0.05 Meter (Check conversion here)
Transverse shear stress in nut: 23.3 Newton per Square Millimeter --> 23300000 Pascal (Check conversion here)
Thread Thickness: 4 Millimeter --> 0.004 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

z = W_a/(pi*d*t_n*t) --> 131000/(pi*0.05*23300000*0.004)

Evaluating ... ...

z = 8.94819637126107

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

8.94819637126107 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

8.94819637126107 ≈ 8.948196 <-- Number of Engaged Threads

Mean Diameter of Power Screw

Go Mean Diameter of Power Screw = Nominal diameter of screw-0.5*Pitch of power screw thread

Nominal Diameter of Power Screw

Go Nominal diameter of screw = Core diameter of screw+Pitch of power screw thread

Core Diameter of Power Screw

Go Core diameter of screw = Nominal diameter of screw-Pitch of power screw thread

Pitch of Power Screw

Go Pitch of power screw thread = Nominal diameter of screw-Core diameter of screw

Number of Threads in Engagement with Nut given Transverse Shear Stress at Root of Nut Formula

Number of Engaged Threads = Axial load on screw/(pi*Nominal diameter of screw*Transverse shear stress in nut*Thread Thickness)
z = W_a/(pi*d*t_n*t)

Length and Depth of Thread Engagement

The axial distance through which the fully formed threads of Nut are in contact is called the Length of Thread Engagement. The Depth of Thread Engagement is the distance the threads overlap in a radial direction.
