Question
A 50-inch long belt is used to transmit power from a motor to a
working shaft....
A 50-inch long belt is used to transmit power from a motor to a
working shaft. The two sheaves involved are both the same size,
hence the belt is not being used to reduce or increase speed or
torque, but simply to “couple” two shafts. The motor’s rated power
is 50 hp and the required service factor is 1.25. The motor speed
is 1160 rpm and the sheave diameters are 7.9”. How many 5V belts
are required here?
