2. A blower is driven by an electric motor though a belt drive. The
motor runs at 750 r.p.m. For this power transmission, a flat belt of 8
mm thickness and 250 mm width is used. The diameter of the
motor pulley is 350 mm and that of the blower pulley 1350 mm. The
center distance between these pulleys is 1350 mm and an open
belt configuration is adopted. The pulleys are made out of cast iron.
The frictional coefficient between the belt and pulley is 0.35 and the
permissible stress for the belt material can be taken as 2.5 N/mm2
with sufficient factor of safety. The mass of a belt is 2 kg per meter
length. Find the maximum power transmitted without belt slipping
in any one of the pulleys. [Ans. 35.9 kW]
