Figure 2 shows an open flat belt drive connected to a motor and a pulley. The
motor transmits 20 kw to the connect pulley of 450 mm diameter and is rotating
at 850 r/min to a second pulley rotating at 400 r/min. The distance between
pulley centres is approximately 2 m. The belt is 6 mm thick and has a density of
970 kg/m. The maximum stress in the belt is not to exceed 2,7 MPa. The
coefficient of friction for both pulleys is 0,3.
Determine:
2.1. The diameter of the second pulley.
2.2. The length of the belt.
3.3. The width of the belt taking centrifugal tension into account.
In a no-load motor, a constant electromagnetic torque of 5 Nm is generated at t = 0. The engine reached 1800 revs in 4 seconds. Calculate motor inertia ignoring friction.

- A 50 Hz pump drive requires a torque of 70 Nm approx. at 1450 rpm approx. for 1 minute followed by 5 minutes running unloaded. This cyclic pattern is repeated continuously. The motor is to be selected from a range of general-purpose motors with continuous ratings of 2.2, 3, 4, 5.5, 7.5, 11, 15 and 20 kW. The motors have a pull-out torque of 200%. 1. Select the pole number. 2. Calculate the continuous power rating. 3. 4. Calculate the required power rating given the pull out torque rating. Estimate the slip when the motor drives the pump at the required speed. Choose the motor from the range of options that is most fit for purpose. 5.
