An electric motor drives a compressor by use of V-belt. The pulley diameter of the compressor shaft is 1.1 meter while the pulley diameter of the motor shaft is 0.6 meter. The belt speed runs at 27 m/s. The center distance between pulleys is 1.75 m. The groove angle of the pulleys is 35º. Determine the power generated in kW if the tension at the tight side of the belt is 670.5 N. The coefficient of friction between the belt and the pulley is 0.23.
