P_t = N*(F_cr*F_dr*P_r)/F_ar
This formula uses 6 Variables

Variables Used

Power transmitted by belt - (Measured in Watt) - Power transmitted by belt is the amount of power that is transmitted from the belt of a belt drive to the pulley.
Number of Belts - Number of Belts is the number of belts that are required for a given application.
Correction Factor for Belt Length - Correction Factor for Belt Length is the factor of correction for the belt length.
Correction Factor for Arc of Contact - Correction Factor for Arc of Contact is the factor of correction for the arc of contact.
Power Rating of Single V-Belt - (Measured in Watt) - Power Rating of Single V-Belt is the power rating given to the single V-Belt.
Correction Factor for Industrial Service - Correction Factor for Industrial Service is the correction factor that is used for industrial purpose.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Number of Belts: 2 --> No Conversion Required
Correction Factor for Belt Length: 1.08 --> No Conversion Required
Correction Factor for Arc of Contact: 0.94 --> No Conversion Required
Power Rating of Single V-Belt: 4.128 Kilowatt --> 4128 Watt (Check conversion here)
Correction Factor for Industrial Service: 1.3 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

P_t = N*(F_cr*F_dr*P_r)/F_ar --> 2*(1.08*0.94*4128)/1.3

Evaluating ... ...

P_t = 6447.30092307692

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

6447.30092307692 Watt -->6.44730092307692 Kilowatt (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

6.44730092307692 ≈ 6.447301 Kilowatt <-- Power transmitted by belt

(Calculation completed in 00.005 seconds)

Drive Power to be Transmitted given Number of Belts Required

Go Power transmitted by belt = Number of Belts*(Correction Factor for Belt Length*Correction Factor for Arc of Contact*Power Rating of Single V-Belt)/Correction Factor for Industrial Service

Power Rating of Single V-Belt given Number of Belts Required

Go Power Rating of Single V-Belt = Power transmitted by belt*Correction Factor for Industrial Service/(Correction Factor for Belt Length*Correction Factor for Arc of Contact*Number of Belts)

Belt Velocity given Power Transmitted using V-Belt

Go Belt Velocity = Power transmitted by belt/(Belt Tension on Tight Side-Belt Tension on Loose Side)

Power Transmitted using V Belt

Go Power transmitted by belt = (Belt Tension on Tight Side-Belt Tension on Loose Side)*Belt Velocity

Belt Tension in Tight Side of Belt given Power Transmitted using V-Belt

Go Belt Tension on Tight Side = Power transmitted by belt/Belt Velocity+Belt Tension on Loose Side

Belt Tension in Loose Side of V-Belt given Power Transmitted

Go Belt Tension on Loose Side = Belt Tension on Tight Side-Power transmitted by belt/Belt Velocity
