Belt Velocity and Length Calculation

This document contains calculations to determine the velocity, center distance, and length of a belt given the diameters and rpm of the motor shaft and crank shaft. It first calculates the velocity of the belt in meters/second. It then calculates the center distance of the belt in inches. Finally, it calculates the total length of the belt needed in inches.

Computation for Belt.

Given:

D1 = 6.5 inches D2 = 4 inches

N1 = 1740 rpm

To compute the velocity of the belt.

v = πDN

rev 0.0254 m min


v = π ( 6.5 in. ) ( 1740 )( )( )
min 1∈¿ ¿ 60 secs

m
v = 15.04163147
s

To Compute the Center Distance of the Belt.

D1+ D 2 ¿
C= + D2 ; C = 6.5∈+4 ∈ 2 ¿ + 4 ; C = 9.25 inches

Computation for Length of the Belt.

( D1−D2 )2
L ≈ 2C + 1.57 ( D2 + D1 ) +
4C

L = 2(9.25 in) + 1.57 ( 4in + 6.5in ) + ¿ ¿ ¿

L = 35.15391892 inches.

D1 = Diameter of Motor Shaft

D2 = Diameter of Crank Shaft

N1 = Speed of the Motor

v = Velocity of the Belt.

L = Length of the Belt

C = Center Distance of the Belt.
