The formula to calculate the Total Percentage Slip in Belt is:
s=s1+s2
Total percentage of slip is defined as insufficient frictional grip between pulley (driver/driven) and belt. Slip between driver and belt is defined as insufficient frictional grip between pulley (driver/driven) and belt. Slip between belt and follower is defined as insufficient frictional grip between pulley (driver/driven) and belt.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
s=0.5+0.2=0.7
| Slip between Driver and Belt (s1) | Slip between Belt and Follower (s2) | Total Percentage of Slip (s) |
|---|---|---|
| 0.4 | 0.2 | 0.600000000000000 |
| 0.45 | 0.2 | 0.650000000000000 |
| 0.5 | 0.2 | 0.700000000000000 |
| 0.55 | 0.2 | 0.750000000000000 |
