V Belts

The document discusses the design procedure for V-belt systems. It lists the key data needed such as the type of driving/driven machines, power transmitted, speeds, pulley diameters and distances. It provides an example of sizing a V-belt system to transmit power from a 10kW motor to an industrial blower. The example calculates the required belt parameters including the arc of contact, center distance and wrapping length based on the given pulley sizes and configuration. Tables and equations are presented to help select the proper V-belt type based on the calculated parameters.

 Type of driving unit
 Type of driven machine
 Power to be transmitted (Hp)
 Input speed (rpm)
 Belt Speed (fpm)
 Belt System
 Service Conditions
 Diameter of Pulleys (in)
 Center Distance of Pulleys (in)

A 10kW-single phase motor is to be used to power an industrial blower. Given


the data below, design the V-Belt parameter required to transmit the power
efficiently.

Driver pulley = 200mm


Driven pulley = 600mm
Speed of driver pulley = 1440 rpm
Center Distance = 24in
