PROBLEM SET (ME 514-FLAT BELT)
1. A20 hp, 1750 rpm, slip ring is to drive a ventilating fan at 330 rpm. The
horizontal center distance must be about 8 to 9 ft. for clearance, and
Operation is continuous, 24 hr./day. (a) What driving pulley size is needed
for a speed recommended as optimum in the text? (b) Decide upon a pulley
size (iron or steel) and belt thickness and determine the belt width by the
ALBA tables. (c) Compute the stress from the general belt equation
‘assuming that the applicable coefficient of friction is that suggested by the
text.
A100 hp squirrel cage, line starting electric motor is used to drive a Freon
reciprocating compressor and turns at 1140 rpm; for the cast-iron motor
pulley, D, = 16 in.; D, = 53 in., a flywheel; cemented joints; C = 8 ft. (a)
Choose an appropriate belt thickness and determine the belt width by the
ALBA tables. (b) Using the design stress, compute the coefficient of friction
that would be needed.
3. Amotor is driving a centrifugal compressor through a 6 in. heavy, single ply
leather belt in a dusty location. The 8 in. motor pulley turns 1750 rpm; D2 =
12 in. (compressor shaft); C = 5 ft. The belt has been designed for a net belt
pull of F; —F, 40 tb/in. of width and F,/F, = 3. Compute (a) the horsepower
(b) The stress in the tight side. (c) For this stress, what needed value of f is
indicated by the general belt equation? (d) Considering the original data,
what horsepower is obtained from the ALBA tables?
4. A25 hp, 870 rpm motor with a 12 in. pulley drives a centrifugal pump at
290 rpm by means of a medium double leather belt laced with wire by
hand. Determine the width and length of the belt required, allowing for
20% overload and 4 ft. center distance.
