Angle of Wrap given Belt Tension in Tight Side Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Wrap Angle on Pulley = ln((Belt Tension on Tight Side-Mass of Meter Length of Belt*Belt Velocity^2)/(Belt Tension on Loose Side-(Mass of Meter Length of Belt*Belt Velocity^2)))/Coefficient of Friction for Belt Drive
α = ln((P₁-m*v_b^2)/(P₂-(m*v_b^2)))/μ
This formula uses 1 Functions, 6 Variables

Functions Used

ln - The natural logarithm, also known as the logarithm to the base e, is the inverse function of the natural exponential function., ln(Number)

Variables Used

Wrap Angle on Pulley - (Measured in Radian) - Wrap Angle on Pulley is the angle between the run-up and run-off of the belt on the pulley.
Belt Tension on Tight Side - (Measured in Newton) - Belt Tension on Tight Side is defined as the belt's tension on the belt's tight side.
Mass of Meter Length of Belt - (Measured in Kilogram per Meter) - Mass of Meter Length of Belt is the mass of 1-meter length of the belt simply mass per unit length of the belt.
Belt Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Belt Velocity is defined as the velocity of the belt used in a belt drive.
Belt Tension on Loose Side - (Measured in Newton) - Belt Tension on Loose Side is defined as the belt's tension on the belt's loose side.
Coefficient of Friction for Belt Drive - Coefficient of Friction for Belt Drive is the ratio defining the force that resists the motion of the belt over the pulley.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Belt Tension on Tight Side: 800 Newton --> 800 Newton No Conversion Required
Mass of Meter Length of Belt: 0.6 Kilogram per Meter --> 0.6 Kilogram per Meter No Conversion Required
Belt Velocity: 25.81 Meter per Second --> 25.81 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Belt Tension on Loose Side: 550 Newton --> 550 Newton No Conversion Required
Coefficient of Friction for Belt Drive: 0.35 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

α = ln((P₁-m*v_b^2)/(P₂-(m*v_b^2)))/μ --> ln((800-0.6*25.81^2)/(550-(0.6*25.81^2)))/0.35

Evaluating ... ...

α = 2.79872750235192

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

2.79872750235192 Radian -->160.355273891985 Degree (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

160.355273891985 ≈ 160.3553 Degree <-- Wrap Angle on Pulley

Wrap Angle for Small Pulley

Go Wrap Angle on Small Pulley = 3.14-(2*(asin((Diameter of Big Pulley-Diameter of Small Pulley)/(2*Centre Distance between Pulleys))))

Center Distance from Small Pulley to Big Pulley given Wrap Angle of Small Pulley

Go Centre Distance between Pulleys = (Diameter of Big Pulley-Diameter of Small Pulley)/(2*sin((3.14-Wrap Angle on Small Pulley)/2))

Diameter of Small Pulley given Wrap Angle of Small Pulley

Go Diameter of Small Pulley = Diameter of Big Pulley-(2*Centre Distance between Pulleys*sin((3.14-Wrap Angle on Small Pulley)/2))

Diameter of Big Pulley given Wrap Angle of Small Pulley

Go Diameter of Big Pulley = Diameter of Small Pulley+(2*Centre Distance between Pulleys*sin((3.14-Wrap Angle on Small Pulley)/2))
