Angle of Wrap given Tension on Loose Side of Band Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Angle of Wrap of Band = ln(Tension in tight side of band brake/Tension in loose side of band brake)/Coefficient of friction for band brake
α = ln(P1/P2)/μbb
This formula uses 1 Functions, 4 Variables
Functions Used
ln - The natural logarithm, also known as the logarithm to the base e, is the inverse function of the natural exponential function., ln(Number)
Variables Used
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.
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.
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.
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.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Tension in tight side of band brake: 15000 Newton --> 15000 Newton No Conversion Required
Tension in loose side of band brake: 5260 Newton --> 5260 Newton No Conversion Required
Coefficient of friction for band brake: 0.46 --> No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
α = ln(P1/P2)/μbb --> ln(15000/5260)/0.46
Evaluating ... ...
α = 2.27808516163607
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
2.27808516163607 Radian --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
2.27808516163607 2.278085 Radian <-- Angle of Wrap of Band
(Calculation completed in 00.008 seconds)
