Length and speed of belt

Sponsored Links

Belt driven fans are common in heating, ventilation and cooling systems. The length of the belt can be calculated as

lB = ((dF + dM) 1.5708 ) + (2 lFM) (1)

where

lB = length of belt (inches)

dF = pulley diameter fan (inches)

dM = pulley diameter motor (inches)

lFM = center to center distance of fan and motor pulleys (inches)

Belt Velocity

The velocity at which a belt travels may be expressed as

v = π dm wm / 12 (2)

where

v = velocity of belt (ft/min)

wm = velocity motor (rpm)
