Calculation detail

Formula: T = 9550P / N

Shaft torque is calculated from power in kW and speed in RPM.

FORMULA VERIFICATION

Units, scope and reference

Reference: Shigley, Mechanical Engineering Design, circular-shaft torsion and elementary beam theory.

Internal unit basis: N, mm, MPa and SI rotational units converted explicitly. Outputs: tool-specific SI engineering units.

Valid conditions: Positive finite geometry, load and source-controlled property inputs.

Limitations: Preliminary elastic screening only; no code-compliance, detailed stress concentration or service spectrum design.
