Belt Velocity of V-Belt given Belt Tension in Loose Side

Go Belt Velocity = sqrt((Belt Tension on Tight Side-(e^(Coefficient of Friction for Belt Drive*Wrap Angle on Pulley/sin(V belt angle/2)))*Belt Tension on Loose Side)/(Mass of Meter Length of V Belt*(1-(e^(Coefficient of Friction for Belt Drive*Wrap Angle on Pulley/sin(V belt angle/2))))))

Mass of One Meter Length of V-Belt given Belt Tension in Loose Side

Go Mass of Meter Length of V Belt = (Belt Tension on Tight Side-(e^(Coefficient of Friction for Belt Drive*Wrap Angle on Pulley/sin(V belt angle/2)))*Belt Tension on Loose Side)/(Belt Velocity^2*(1-(e^(Coefficient of Friction for Belt Drive*Wrap Angle on Pulley/sin(V belt angle/2)))))

Coefficient of Friction in V-Belt given Belt Tension in Loose Side of Belt

Go Coefficient of Friction for Belt Drive = sin(V belt angle/2)*ln((Belt Tension on Tight Side-Mass of Meter Length of V Belt*Belt Velocity^2)/(Belt Tension on Loose Side-Mass of Meter Length of V Belt*Belt Velocity^2))/Wrap Angle on Pulley

Angle of Wrap of V-Belt given Belt Tension in Loose Side of Belt

Go Wrap Angle on Pulley = sin(V belt angle/2)*ln((Belt Tension on Tight Side-Mass of Meter Length of V Belt*Belt Velocity^2)/(Belt Tension on Loose Side-Mass of Meter Length of V Belt*Belt Velocity^2))/Coefficient of Friction for Belt Drive

Belt Tension in Loose Side of V-Belt

Go Belt Tension on Loose Side = (Belt Tension on Tight Side-Mass of Meter Length of V Belt*Belt Velocity^2)/(e^Coefficient of Friction for Belt Drive*Wrap Angle on Pulley/sin(V belt angle/2))+Mass of Meter Length of V Belt*Belt Velocity^2

Belt Tension in Tight Side of V-Belt

Go Belt Tension on Tight Side = (e^Coefficient of Friction for Belt Drive*Wrap Angle on Pulley/sin(V belt angle/2))*(Belt Tension on Loose Side-Mass of Meter Length of V Belt*Belt Velocity^2)+Mass of Meter Length of V Belt*Belt Velocity^2

Correction Factor for Industrial Services given Number of Belts Required

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

Correction Factor for Arc of Contact given Number of Belts Required

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

Correcting Factor for Belt Length given Number of Belts Required

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

Number of V Belts Required for Given Applications

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

Defne a V-Belt?

A V-belt is the rubber belt that drives the alternator, air conditioning compressor, power steering pump, and water pump. It's called a V-belt because of its “V” shaped cross-section. All belts wear out over time and need to be replaced. If you notice cracks or frayed peeling rubber, you should have the belt changed immediately to avoid serious engine damage that could occur.
