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

Variables Used

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.
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.
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.
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
Multiple Strand Factor: 3.554709 --> No Conversion Required
Tooth Correction Factor: 1.05 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

kW = P_c*K_s/(k₁*k₂) --> 9880*1.7/(3.554709*1.05)

Evaluating ... ...

kW = 4499.99999330198

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

4499.99999330198 Watt -->4.49999999330198 Kilowatt (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

4.49999999330198 ≈ 4.5 Kilowatt <-- Power Rating of Chain
