Abstract
The sizing of a power transmission shaft exhibits an interactive nature, which presents an intrinsic interconnection between the shaft and the design of its individual elements. Consequently, the sizing process is longstanding, irksome and can accumulate many calculation errors. Seeking an instrument that provides greater reliability, reduces the time spent on a project and allows a quick design comparison for different materials. A simple and intelligible mathematical algorithm was developed, tested and validated in MATLAB® environment, that automates the calculations of a bi supported power transmission sizing with up to four cylindrical gears. As a result, outputting the shaft rebound diameters based on fatigue strength and strength of materials.
