In a capstan model the tight side tension is on the side which is being pulled against the direction of the angular velocity this is usually denoted as T1.
Slack side tension is denoted as T2
equation relating the two:
T1/T2 = eu0
0=theta, u=mew
The answers?
Slack-rope walk. A rope will be under tension and tight if the two ends are elevated so there is no slack, hence a tight-rope. However, leaving the rope unsuspended will result in a slack rope which will not move under foot and can be walked on easily, as the rope is supported by the ground that also offers support to the feet.
due to the rotation of pullies.larger pulley pulls the belt from smaller pulley so tight side appears and it releases at top so slack side
it should have 1 inch to 3/4 inch slack in it
It keeps drive belts under tension (pulled tight)
centrifugal force independent on tight side & slack side. And depends only velocty of belts only.
Pin the top tension idler pully..take the front wheel off...the bottom idler pully is on an excentric...loosen same....belt goes slack.... put new belt on,set the excentric as tight as possible.. remove the pin in the top tension idler pully belt should be tight after doing this... happy days
Snug tight for direct tension indicators means tight but not binding. It would be like tightening something with the hand as much as a person can without a wrench.
If you do not still have your chain tensioner attached you need to slack the four bolts on rear end housing pull rearend tight as possible and retighten your four bolts
Half inch to an inch of slack in the middle is just right.
when belt move from tight side to slack side there is some extansion in the belt, and when it again move from slack side to tight side the compression will occur and the change in the lenght of the belt due to which there will be relative motion between belt and pulley and creep will occur.
To tighten the belt on a DVX 250, first, remove the cover to access the belt. Locate the tensioner and adjust it by turning the adjustment bolt to increase tension on the belt. Ensure the belt has the proper tension by checking for any slack; it should be tight but still allow for slight movement. Once adjusted, reassemble the cover securely.
