    The document provides steps for designing flat belt and V-belt drives using manufacturing data and basic equations. For flat belts, the steps include selecting pulley diameters, calculating design power, selecting belt type and number of plies, determining belt width, pulley width, belt length, and other pulley dimensions. For V-belts, the steps are selecting belt cross section, pulley diameters, center distance, pitch length, power capacity, number of belts, actual center distance, and V-grooved pulley dimensions. Both methods also describe equations for power transmission, belt tension, belt mass, and belt cross-sectional area.

    Belt Drive – Flat Belt (Using Manufacturing Data)

    Step 1: Standard Pulley Diameter D and d


    Find the pulley diameters using the relationship, i=D/d or n/N [PSG Page 7.61]
    Select the standard diameters [PSG Page 7.54]
    Step 2: Design power
    Calculate the design power.
    Rated power x Load correction factor
    Design power =
    Arc of contact factor

    Load correction factor - PSG page 7.53.


    Arc of contact factor - PSG page 7.54.
    (Rated power is the power of motor and usually will be given)
    Step 3: Type of Belt
    Select the type of Belt [PSG Page 7.52].
    Step 4: Load rating and number of plies
    𝜋𝐷𝑁 𝜋𝑑𝑛
    Belt velocity, v= = m/sec ----------------if diameter is in meter
    60 60
    Load rating at v m/s = Load rating at 10 m/s x v/10 [PSG page 7.54]
    Select the number of plies [PSG Page 7.52].
    Step 5: Standard belt width
    Design power
    Belt width =
    Load rating x Number of piles
    Standardize the belt width [PSG page 7.52].
    Step 6: Pulley Width
    Fix the pulley width [PSG Page 7.54].
    Step 7: Length of Belt
    Length of Belt [PSG Page 7.53].
    Step 8: Other Pulley Dimensions
    Compute other pulley dimensions.

    Belt Drive – V- Belt (Using Manufacturing Data)

    Step 1: Select Belt type - Cross Section


    Belt cross section based on rated (motor) power [PSG Page 7.58].
    Step 2: Standard Pulley Diameter D and d
    Find the pulley diameters using the relationship, i=D/d or n/N [PSG Page 7.61]
    Select the standard diameters [PSG Page 7.54].
    Step 5: Centre distance

    Approximate pitch length [PSG page 7.61]
    Nominal pitch length, L [PSG page 7.59 and 7.60]
    Step 5: Maximum power transmitting capacity in kW
    Maximum power transmitting capacity in kW [PSG Page 7.62]
    𝜋𝐷𝑁 𝜋𝑑𝑛
    Velocity of belt, S = = m/sec----------- if diameter is in meter
    60 60

    Number of belts, n [PSG Page 7.70].
    Fa [PSG Page 7.69].
    Fc [PSG Page 7.59 to 7.60].
    Fd [PSG Page 7.68].
    Step 7: Actual centre distance, C
    Actual centre distance, C [PSG page 7.61].
    Step 8: Dimensions of V-Grooved pulley
    Dimensions of V-Grooved pulley (Sheave) [PSG page 7.70].
