A polyamide F-0 flat belt 80mm wide is used to transmit 5 kW under light shock conditions where Ks = 1.25, and a factor of safety equal to or greater than 1.1 is appropriate. The pulley rotational axes are parallel and in the horizontal plane. The shafts are 8mm apart. The 50 mm driving pulley rotates at 1750 rev/min in such a way that the loose side is on top. The driven pulley is 50 mm in diameter. The factor of safety is for unquantifiable exigencies. (a) Estimate the centrifugal tension Fc and the torque T. (b) Estimate the allowable F1, F2, Fi and allowable power Ha . (c) Estimate the factor of safety. Is it satisfactory?
