Belt Distance Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the Belt Distance.
Dbelt = LB * #R
- Where Dbelt is the Belt Distance (ft)
- LB is the total length of the belt (ft)
- #R is the number of rotations
How to Calculate Belt Distance?
The following example problems outline how to calculate Belt Distance.
Example Problem #1:
- First, determine the total length of the belt (ft).
- The total length of the belt (ft) is given as: 30.
- Next, determine the number of rotations.
- The number of rotations is provided as: 20.
- Finally, calculate the Belt Distance using the equation above:
Dbelt = LB * #R
The values given above are inserted into the equation below and the solution is calculated:
Dbelt = 30 * 20 =600 (ft)
Example Problem #2:
For this problem, the variables needed are provided below:
total length of the belt (ft) = 60
number of rotations = 45
This example problem is a test of your knowledge on the subject. Use the calculator above to check your answer.
Dbelt = LB * #R = ?
