A v-belt drive is to transmit 330kW power from a pulley of 1m diameter running at 250rpm. The safe pull in each belt is 800N and the mass of the belt is 0.46kg per meter length. The angle of lap and the groove angle is 160º and 45º respectively. If the coefficient of friction between the belt and the pulley is 0.3. Calculate the number of belts required
