2. A flat belt drive consists of two 4-ft diameter cast-iron pulleys spaced 16 ft apart. A power of 60 hp is transmitted by a pulley whose speed is 380 rev/min. Use a service factor (Ks) pf 1.1 and a design factor 1.0. The width of the polyamide A-3 belt is 6 in. Use CD=1. Answer the following questions. (1) What is the total length of the belt according to the given geometry? (2) Find the centrifugal force (Fc) applied to the belt. (3) What is the transmitted torque through the pulley system given 60hp? (4) Using the allowable tension, find the force (F₁) on the tight side. What is the tension at the loose side (F2) and the initial tension (F.)? (5) Using the forces, estimate the developed friction coefficient (f) (6) Based on the forces and the given rotational speed, rate the pulley set. In other words, what is the horse power that can be transmitted by the pulley system? (7) To reduce the applied tension on the tight side, the friction coefficient is increased to 0.75. Find out the…
