Machine Design
When the belt is transmitting maximum power, the belt speed should be(Where, m = mass of belt per meter (kg/m) and Pmax = maximum permissible tension in belt (N))

√(Pmax / 2m)
√(Pmax / m)
√(Pmax / 3m)
√(3m /Pmax)

Machine Design
In a band and block brake, the ratio of tensions on the tight and slack sides of band is given by (where μ = Coefficient of friction between the blocks and the drum, θ = Semi-angle of each block subtending at the centre of drum, and n = Number of blocks)

T₁/T₂ = [(1 - μ tanθ)/ (1 + μ tanθ)]n
T₁/T₂ = μθ × n
T₁/T₂ = [(1 + μ tanθ)/ (1 - μ tanθ)]n
T₁/T₂ = (μθ)n
