A 8 mm thick leather open belt connects two flat pulleys. The smaller pulley is 300 mm diameter and runs at 200 r.p.m. The angle of lap of this pulley is 160° and the coefficient of friction between the belt and the pulley is 0.25. The belt is on the point of slipping when 3 kW is transmitted. The safe working stress in the belt material is 1.6 N/mm2. Determine the required width of the belt for 20% overload capacity. The initial tension may be taken equal to the mean of the driving tensions. It is proposed to increase the power transmitting capacity of the drive by adopting one of the following alternatives : 1. by increasing initial tension by 10%, and 2. by increasing the coefficient of friction to 0.3 by applying a dressing to the belt. Examine the two alternatives and recommend the one which will be more effective. How much power would the drive transmit adopting either of the two alternatives?
