Power Transmitted by Roller Chain Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Power Transmitted by Chain Drive = Allowable Tension in Chain*Average Chain Velocity
P_c = P₁*v
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

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.
Allowable Tension in Chain - (Measured in Newton) - Allowable Tension in Chain is the maximum force the chain can withstand without breaking. It is crucial for ensuring the safety and reliability of the chain drive system.
Average Chain Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Average Chain Velocity is the average speed at which the chain moves along its path. It is determined by the rotational speed of the sprockets and the chain's length.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Allowable Tension in Chain: 2400 Newton --> 2400 Newton No Conversion Required
Average Chain Velocity: 4.116667 Meter per Second --> 4.116667 Meter per Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

P_c = P₁*v --> 2400*4.116667

Evaluating ... ...

P_c = 9880.0008

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

9880.0008 Watt -->9.8800008 Kilowatt (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

9.8800008 ≈ 9.880001 Kilowatt <-- Power Transmitted by Chain Drive
