• In double drum drive Te= T1- T3; For total angle of lap of
460o and coefficient of friction at 0.25, T3= 0.155 Te and T1=
1.155 Te. The drive factor is 0.155.

• Pb = mb*(L+45) *g *μe *V
• Where mb = Mass of belt conveyor and idlers, kg/m. It is
available from the manufacturer.
L is the length of conveyor; The length is corrected by
another 45 m to take care of the friction.
μe is the coefficient of friction while driving the empty
conveyor.
V is the velocity of the conveyor, m/s
• Pm = mm* L * g * μm * V
Where mm is the mass of the mineral per unit length = C/V
and C is the capacity
μm is the coefficient of friction
• Solution:
Assuming the area of cross-section to be W2/ 11 and using
the formula C = a*b*v we get
(220 x 1/3600) = 0.82 x 0.8 x v/11 => v = 1.31 m/s.
