Effective Radius of Drum for Simple Band Brake Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Effective Radius of the Drum = Radius of the Drum+Thickness of Band/2
r_e = r_drum+t/2
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Effective Radius of the Drum - (Measured in Meter) - The effective radius of the drum is the radius when the thickness of the band is also considered.
Radius of the Drum - (Measured in Meter) - The radius of the drum is any of the line segments from its center to its perimeter, and in more modern usage, it is also their length.
Thickness of Band - (Measured in Meter) - The thickness of band is the distance through an object, as distinct from width or height.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Radius of the Drum: 0.16 Meter --> 0.16 Meter No Conversion Required
Thickness of Band: 0.005 Meter --> 0.005 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

r_e = r_drum+t/2 --> 0.16+0.005/2

Evaluating ... ...

r_e = 0.1625

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.1625 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.1625 Meter <-- Effective Radius of the Drum
