    This document summarizes the calculations for determining the forces involved in a simple band brake system. It outlines the key parameters needed like drum diameter, band width, contact angle, and brake pedal distance. The maximum tension in the band (T1) is calculated based on these values and the maximum lining pressure and coefficient of friction. Further calculations then determine the tension at the pedal end of the band (T2) and the final force applied by the pedal.

    1. Drum diameter 2. Width of the lining 3. Angle of the contact 4. Distance of brake pedal c 5. b 6. Drum speed 7. Maximum lining pressure (p1) 8. Coefficient of friction () Maximum tension in the band P1 T1 T1 T1

    - 25 cm - 15 cm - 270 0 - 30cm - 7 cm - 60 rpm - 5 Kg/cm 2 - 0.4 -T1 =T1/wr = P1wr = 5*15*25/2 = 937.5 Kg

    T1/ T2

    = e

    T2 T2 T2 T2 Force (p) P P P P

    = T1/ e = 937.5/e (0.4*270/180) = 937.5/6.55 = 143.12 kg

    = T2. b/c = 143.12*7/30 = 33.39 kg = 333.9 N

    This force can be applied in humans. So than we can to use this type of band brake.
