There are practical limitations on doubling the iconic scale. We can double pulley diameters and the center-to-center distance. With the belt we could: • Use the same A-3 belt and double its width; | Chapter 17 17-1 Preliminaries to give some checkpoints 1 VR 2 Angular velocity ratio Hnom 2 hp 1750rev min C 9 12 108 in Ks nd 1 dmin 1in Fa 35 lbf in y lbf in3 f b 6 in d 2 in from Table 17-2 for F-1 Polyamide t in from Table 17-4 Cp . w 12ybt 12 6 lbf ft 6d rad exp f6 perhaps _ ndn n 2 1750 V Y2 ft min 12 w V 2 a Eq. e Fc 4 v c 60 2 lbf 60 Ans.

Having reduced F1 and F2 the endurance of the belt is improved. Power service factor and design factor .
