Centrifugal Tension in Belt Formula

Centrifugal Tension of Belt = Mass of Belt per Unit Length*Velocity of Belt
Tc = m*v

What is the effect of centrifugal tension in the belt?

This centrifugal force reduces the pressure between the belt and the rim of the pulleys, and thus, moves the belt away from the pulley and reduces the wrap angle. Therefore, the belt tensions and power transmission also are reduced.

How to Calculate Centrifugal Tension in Belt?
