4 A compressor requires 120 kW to run at 240 rpm from an electric motor of speed 750
rpm by means of a V-belt drivę. The diaincter of comp shaft pulley should not be
more than 1000 mm while the center distance between the shafts is 2000 mm. Belt
speed should not be more than 25 m/sec.
Detcrmine number of belts to transmit the power it each belt has cross-sectional
arca of 375 mm', density 1000 kg/m' and allowable tensile stress of 2.5 MPa. The
pulley groove angle is 40° and coeff, of friction between pulley and belt is 0.25:
