Figure 2
Figure 2 shows an open flat belt drive connected to a motor and a pulley. The
motor transmits 20 kw to the connect pulley of 450 mm diameter and is rotating
at 850 r/min to a second pulley rotating at 400 r/min. The distance between
pulley centres is approximately 2 m. The belt is 6 mm thick and has a density of
970 kg/m. The maximum stress in the belt is not to exceed 2,7 MPa. The
coefficient of friction for both pulleys is 0,3.
Determine:
2.1. The diameter of the second pulley.
2.2. The length of the belt.
3.3. The width of the belt taking centrifugal tension into account.
