Q4/ A compressor is driven motor by mean of a flat belt of thickness 10 mm and a width of
250 mm. The motor pulley is 300 mm diameter and run at 900 rpm and the compressor
pulley is 1500 mm diameter. The shaft center distance is 1.5 m. The angle of contact of
the smaller pulley is 220° and on the larger pulley is 270°. The coefficient of friction
between the belt and the small pulley is 0.3, and between the belt and the large pulley is
0.25. The maximum allowable belt stress is 2 MPa and the belt density is 970 kg/m³.
(a) What is the power capacity of the drive and (b) If the small pulley replaced by
V-grooved pulley of diameter 300 mm, grooved angle of 34° and the coefficient of
friction between belt and grooved pulley is 0.35. What will be the power capacity in this
case, assuming that the diameter of the large pulley remain the same of 1500 mm.
