Service Factor given Power Rating of Chain Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Service Factor of Chain Drive = Power Rating of Chain*Multiple Strand Factor*Tooth Correction Factor/Power Transmitted by Chain Drive
Ks = kW*k1*k2/Pc
This formula uses 5 Variables
Variables Used
Service Factor of Chain Drive - Service Factor of Chain Drive is defined as the ratio of the torque capacity and the rated torque value.
Power Rating of Chain - (Measured in Watt) - The Power Rating of Chain is the highest power input allowed to flow through the chain.
Multiple Strand Factor - The Multiple Strand Factor is a factor to account for the roller chain made up of two or more strands assembled as a single structure on pins.
Tooth Correction Factor - Tooth Correction Factor is the factor of correction for the undercuts of the tooth.
Power Transmitted by Chain Drive - (Measured in Watt) - Power Transmitted by Chain Drive is the amount of power that is transferred from its place of generation to a location where it is applied to perform useful work.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Power Rating of Chain: 4.5 Kilowatt --> 4500 Watt (Check conversion here)
Multiple Strand Factor: 3.3 --> No Conversion Required
Tooth Correction Factor: 1.05 --> No Conversion Required
Power Transmitted by Chain Drive: 9.88 Kilowatt --> 9880 Watt (Check conversion here)
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
Ks = kW*k1*k2/Pc --> 4500*3.3*1.05/9880
Evaluating ... ...
Ks = 1.57818825910931
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
1.57818825910931 --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
1.57818825910931 1.578188 <-- Service Factor of Chain Drive
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

8 Power Rating of Roller Chains Calculators

Tooth Correction Factor given Power Rating of Chain
Go Tooth Correction Factor = Power Transmitted by Chain Drive*Service Factor of Chain Drive/(Multiple Strand Factor*Power Rating of Chain)
Multiple Strand Factor given Power Rating of Chain
Go Multiple Strand Factor = Power Transmitted by Chain Drive*Service Factor of Chain Drive/(Power Rating of Chain*Tooth Correction Factor)
Power Rating of Chain
Go Power Rating of Chain = Power Transmitted by Chain Drive*Service Factor of Chain Drive/(Multiple Strand Factor*Tooth Correction Factor)
Power to be Transmitted given Power Rating of Chain
Go Power Transmitted by Chain Drive = Power Rating of Chain*Multiple Strand Factor*Tooth Correction Factor/Service Factor of Chain Drive
Service Factor given Power Rating of Chain
Go Service Factor of Chain Drive = Power Rating of Chain*Multiple Strand Factor*Tooth Correction Factor/Power Transmitted by Chain Drive
Allowable Tension in Chain given Power Transmitted by Roller Chain
Go Allowable Tension in Chain = Power Transmitted by Chain Drive/Average Chain Velocity
Average Velocity of Chain given Power Transmitted by Roller Chain
Go Average Chain Velocity = Power Transmitted by Chain Drive/Allowable Tension in Chain
Power Transmitted by Roller Chain
Go Power Transmitted by Chain Drive = Allowable Tension in Chain*Average Chain Velocity

Service Factor given Power Rating of Chain Formula

Service Factor of Chain Drive = Power Rating of Chain*Multiple Strand Factor*Tooth Correction Factor/Power Transmitted by Chain Drive
Ks = kW*k1*k2/Pc
