k₁ = P_c*K_s/(kW*k₂)
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Multiple Strand Factor - Multiple Strand Factor is a value used to account for the increased load capacity of a chain drive system with multiple parallel strands.
Power Transmitted by Chain Drive - (Measured in Watt) - Power Transmitted by Chain Drive is the amount of mechanical power the chain transfers from the driving sprocket to the driven sprocket. It depends on the chain's speed and the force applied to it.
Service Factor of Chain Drive - Service Factor of Chain Drive is a multiplier used to account for the operating conditions and expected usage of the chain.
Power Rating of Chain - (Measured in Watt) - Power Rating of Chain is the maximum amount of power the chain can transmit without failing. It is based on the chain's design, material, and operating conditions.
Tooth Correction Factor - Tooth Correction Factor adjusts the calculations for the load capacity and efficiency of gears or sprockets. It accounts for deviations in tooth profile from the ideal shape.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Power Transmitted by Chain Drive: 9.88 Kilowatt --> 9880 Watt (Check conversion here)
Service Factor of Chain Drive: 1.7 --> No Conversion Required
Power Rating of Chain: 4.5 Kilowatt --> 4500 Watt (Check conversion here)
Tooth Correction Factor: 1.05 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

k₁ = P_c*K_s/(kW*k₂) --> 9880*1.7/(4500*1.05)

Evaluating ... ...

k₁ = 3.55470899470899

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

3.55470899470899 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

3.55470899470899 ≈ 3.554709 <-- Multiple Strand Factor
