Slip and Creep Measurement App.
Slip and Creep Measurement App
This apparatus is useful for measurement of power transmitted for
various input power conditions with varied belt tension. Belt slip or
creep also can be measured.
The apparatus consists of a variable speed
D.C. Motor, driving pulley and driven pulley of equal diameters. The
pulleys are mounted on input shaft (motor shaft) and output shaft. The
driven pulley can slide on the base only with bearing block to change
the initial tension in belt. Brake drum is mounted on the output shaft,
which helps to measure power output. The motor speed is varied by
Thyristor Control D.C. Drive. A double channel digital speed indicator
indicates driving and driven pulley speeds. With the help of Stroboscope
(not in the scope of supply) it is possible to demonstrate the slip of
belt on driving and driven pulley.
Experiments
To measure co-efficient of friction between pulley material and different belt materials.
To measure power transmitted with varied belt tension.
To
measure percentage slip at fixed belt tension by varying load on the
Brake drum and plot the graph of (T1- T2) v/s percentage slip i.e. "Slip
Characteristics" Finding a Creep Zone from graph.
To measure belt slip speed and observe the limiting value of load at constant speed when the slip just starts
To study creep of belt
