STUDY THE EFFECT OF WORKING SPEED ON THE POWER TRANSMISSION CAPACITY OF BELT DRIVES

Abstract

This article present the establishment of a model, which is used to evaluate the effect of working speed on the power transmission capacity of belt drives. The obtained models are the explicit formulas leading to the rapid calculation and exact results. Besides, this model can be used to build a computer program for advanced computations. Furthermore, two more formulas were also derived for estimating the optimal belt speed and then, the optimal power transmission capacity of the belt drives.
