μbb = ln(P1/P2)/α
This formula uses 1 Functions, 4 Variables
Functions Used
ln - The natural logarithm, also known as the logarithm to the base e, is the inverse function of the natural exponential function., ln(Number)
Variables Used
Coefficient of friction for band brake - Coefficient of friction for band brake is the ratio defining the force that resists the motion of the in relation to the drum in contact with it.
Tension in tight side of band brake - (Measured in Newton) - Tension in tight side of band brake is the tension present in the loose side of the Band Brakes.
Tension in loose side of band brake - (Measured in Newton) - Tension in loose side of band brake is the tension present in the loose side of the Band Brakes.
Angle of Wrap of Band - (Measured in Radian) - The Angle of Wrap of Band is the angle between the run-up and run-off of the belt or the band on the drum.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Tension in tight side of band brake: 15000 Newton --> 15000 Newton No Conversion Required
Tension in loose side of band brake: 5260 Newton --> 5260 Newton No Conversion Required
Angle of Wrap of Band: 2.28 Radian --> 2.28 Radian No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
μbb = ln(P1/P2)/α --> ln(15000/5260)/2.28
Evaluating ... ...
μbb = 0.459613672961663
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
0.459613672961663 --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
0.459613672961663 0.459614 <-- Coefficient of friction for band brake

Coefficient of Friction between Friction Lining and Brake Drum
Go Coefficient of friction for band brake = ln(Tension in tight side of band brake/Tension in loose side of band brake)/Angle of Wrap of Band
Angle of Wrap given Tension on Loose Side of Band
Go Angle of Wrap of Band = ln(Tension in tight side of band brake/Tension in loose side of band brake)/Coefficient of friction for band brake
Tension on Loose Side of Band
Go Tension in loose side of band brake = Tension in tight side of band brake/e^((Coefficient of friction for band brake)*Angle of Wrap of Band)
Tension of Tight Side of Band
Go Tension in tight side of band brake = Tension in loose side of band brake*e^(Coefficient of friction for band brake*Angle of Wrap of Band)
Radius of Brake Drum given Torque Absorbed by Brake
Go Radius of Brake Drum = Torque Absorbed by Band Brake/(Tension in tight side of band brake-Tension in loose side of band brake)
Torque Absorbed by Brake
Go Torque Absorbed by Band Brake = (Tension in tight side of band brake-Tension in loose side of band brake)*Radius of Brake Drum
Tension on Tight Side of Band given Torque Absorbed by Brake
Go Tension in tight side of band brake = Torque Absorbed by Band Brake/Radius of Brake Drum+Tension in loose side of band brake
Tension on Loose Side of Band given Torque Absorbed by Brake
Go Tension in loose side of band brake = Tension in tight side of band brake-Torque Absorbed by Band Brake/Radius of Brake Drum
