PROJECT PROPOSAL

A countershaft carrying two V-belt on pulley as shown in the picture above. Pulley A receives power from a motor
through the belt that acts on its. The power received then transmitted to the shaft and delivered to the belt on
pulley B . Assume the belt tension on the lose side at B is 15 percent of the tension on the tight site.

a) Assume the shaft running at constant speed, find the tension received on pulley B

b) Show calculation of magnitude of the bearin reaction force ( by assuming the bearing acts simple support)

c) Draw shear and moment diagram for the shaft

d) Perform stress and fatigue failure analsyis by using appropriate method.
