Power Transmission Elements

It is defined as the energy transfer from one location to another location. The energy will start moving from the energy generation source to the energy applied position to obtain the work output. From this method, a large amount of electric energy moves from the power station to various electrical substations.

Two pulleys are run by a common belt. If a 10.8 inch diameter pulley turns at 900 rpm, what is the diameter of the second pulley if it turns at 421 R.P.M.? Note: Speed is inversely proportional to diameter.
2. A blower is driven by an electric motor though a belt drive. The motor runs at 750 r.p.m. For this power transmission, a flat belt of 8 mm thickness and 250 mm width is used. The diameter of the motor pulley is 350 mm and that of the blower pulley 1350 mm. The center distance between these pulleys is 1350 mm and an open belt configuration is adopted. The pulleys are made out of cast iron. The frictional coefficient between the belt and pulley is 0.35 and the permissible stress for the belt material can be taken as 2.5 N/mm2 with sufficient factor of safety.
