Tension in Loose Side of Band Brake - (Measured in Newton) - Tension in Loose Side of Band Brake is the tension present in the loose side of the Band Brakes.
Tension in Tight Side of Band Brake - (Measured in Newton) - Tension in Tight Side of Band Brake is the tension present in the loose side of the Band Brakes.
Coefficient of Friction For Band Brake - Coefficient of Friction For Band Brake is the ratio defining the force that resists the motion of the in relation to the drum in contact with it.
Angle of Wrap of Band - (Measured in Radian) - The Angle of Wrap of Band is the angle between the run-up and run-off of the belt or the band on the drum.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Tension in Tight Side of Band Brake: 15000 Newton --> 15000 Newton No Conversion Required
Coefficient of Friction For Band Brake: 0.46 --> No Conversion Required
Angle of Wrap of Band: 2.28 Radian --> 2.28 Radian No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
P2 = P1/e^((μb)*α) --> 15000/e^((0.46)*2.28)
Evaluating ... ...
P2 = 5255.36889699121
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
5255.36889699121 Newton --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
5255.36889699121 5255.369 Newton <-- Tension in Loose Side of Band Brake
