Design, build and test a flat belt/pulley
Project description
Discuss multiple types of belts and pulleys.
Discuss failure modes and mechanisms, materials used in
various belts and pulleys, where belts are used(applications, not geographic).
Discuss load limitations for various belt/pulley combinations (sizes and styles). Equations for
belt calculation( length, thickness, and angle of wrap).Determine the coefficient of sliding friction for rubber against wood.Diameter of
large pulley:3.667 in. Diameter of smaller pulley: 2.737 in. Belt thickness 0.141 in.
