- The BAPCO in Bahrain is looking to design a V belt drive system for its recently installed rotary machines. The smaller pulley having a diameter of * d" is connected to an electric motor and run at a speed of nd. The belt is used to drive a larger pulley at a speed of 90 rpm. The V belt is used to transmits a power of 95 hp and ignore it in belt class selection process (Table 17.9). The service factor for the V belt drive system is 1.3 and the suggested factor of safety for the current design is 2.5.
