Belt loosening / slippage - dynamic issue?
Belt loosening / slippage - dynamic issue?
(OP)
My collegue is involved on a problem identification of a "belt loosening / slippage problem leading to failure" in a motor (11kW power) driven screw compressor after a few (20 - 30) hours of operation.
Is there anything else he needs to consider apart from the static design, contact angle, etccc? Say, whether a torsional analysis is required to see whether he is operating in some out of phase modes? Could this also be point of concern? Any other check points.
Thanks in advance
