Q2. Figure Q2 shows a shaft which transmits a power of 48 kW through flat belts. Pulley A is driven by a motor which rotates at 3000 rpm. The diameter of pulley A is 400 mm and that of pulley B is 25...
Determine the number of V-belts required to transmit a power of 60 kW at 750 rpm from an electric motor to a compressor shaft at 300 rpm. The larger pulley diameter is 1500 mm. The centre distance is 1650 mm, and overload factor is to be taken as 1.5. A belt with cross- sectional area of 350 mm², density of 1000 kg/m and having an allowable tensile strength of 2 MPa is available for use. The coefficient of friction between...
A transmission shaft is supported on two bearings which are 1m apart. Power is supplied to the shaft by means of a flexible coupling, which is located to the left of left hand bearing. Power is transmitted from the shaft by means of a belt pulley, 250 mm diameter, which is located at a distance of 300 mm from the left hand bearing. The mass of the pulley is 20 kg and the ratio of belt tension on tight and slack sides is 2:1. The...
PROBLEM 3: Figure 3 shows a top view ofa motor driven pump. The direction of the gravitational acceleration is indicated by g, and is oriented orthogonal to this paper. The shaft of the motor is supported by two bearings in points A and B and the motor rotates at n 1000 rpm. The motor power is 10 kW. The radius of pulley A and B. a-,3 = 40 mm. Each pulley weighs 5 kg. The pump shaft is supported by...
Problem 1 (50 points) A countershaft carrying two V-belt pulleys is shown in the figure. Pulley A receives power from a motor through a belt with tensions shown. The power is transmitted through the shaft and delivered to the belt on pulley B. Assume the belt tension on the loose side at B is 15 percent of the tension on the tight side. 230 mm F: 30-mm dia. 280 mm 300 mm 250-mm dia. 400-mm dia 1000 N 150 N...

3. Power transmission is an important engineering application and relies on the integrity of the shaft designs. Assume a solid, circular steel shaft with a uniform diameter d 50 mm and a total length I3 m. At its midpoint, a belt passes over a pulley and delivers 50 kW power to the shaft. This power is used to drive two machines at either end of the shaft. Machine 1 consumes P1 20 kW and machine 2 uses P230 KW. The...
Figure Q1 shows a gear train consists of four spur gears A, B, C and D to be designed for a specific

Figure 1 shows the layout of countershaft used to transmit power to a blower through a pulley drive (4-5). Pulley (driving sheave) 4 has a diameter of 125-mm and pulley (driven sheave) 5 has a diameter of 75 mm. Pulley 5 is mounted vertically below pulley 4 (as shown in the figure). Belt tension on the loose side is 20% of the tension on the tight side. A power of 7.5 kW is transmitted via the gear set (2-3) from...
