Bachelor of Engineering Technology Q4. A pulley 180 mm diameter rotating at 1440 rpm drives a fan by means of a vee belt. The angle of contact of the belt on the pulley is 160°. The tight-side belt tension is 1200 N and the coefficient of friction of the contact surfaces is 0.4. The half groove angle is 24º. Calculate: a) the power transmitted. b) the rotational speed of the driven pulley if the driven pulley has a diameter of 900 mm. 10 marks]
