29 Motor RPM Available at GB input shaft Nm = Motor RPM*0.97 RPM 1445 (Considering fluid coupling slip as max.3%)

30 Gearbox ratio required G = (π x D1 x Motor RPM)/(60 x Belt Speed) - 13.68

31 Referring ELECON Helical gearbox catalogue, selected nominal reduction ratio - 14

32 Belt speed with gear box nominal ratio V2= (π x D1 x Motor RPM)/(60 x reduction ratio) m/sec 4.50

HENCE BELT SPEED V2 IS ADEQUATE TO CATER FOR DESIGN CAPACITY AS THE SELECTED SPEED OF 4.5 m/s IS MORE THAN REQUIRED SPEED OF 2.92 m/s (WITH MAX BULK
DENSITY OF MATERIAL). THEREFORE CHOSEN REDUCTION RATIO IS CORRECT.
