Torque Absorbed by Brake Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Torque Absorbed by Brake?

FIRST Step Consider the formula
Mt=(P1-P2)r
Next Step Substitute values of Variables
Mt=(15000N-5260N)300mm
Next Step Convert Units
Mt=(15000N-5260N)0.3m
Next Step Prepare to Evaluate
Mt=(15000-5260)0.3
Next Step Evaluate
Mt=2922N*m
Next Step Convert to Output's Unit
Mt=2922000N*mm
LAST Step Rounding Answer
Mt=2.9E+6N*mm

How to Evaluate Torque Absorbed by Brake?

Torque Absorbed by Brake evaluator uses Torque Absorbed By Brake = (Tension in Tight Side of Band Brake-Tension in Loose Side of Band Brake)*Radius of Brake Drum to evaluate the Torque Absorbed By Brake, Torque Absorbed by Brake is a measure of the rotational force that the brake can exert to stop or slow down a rotating drum or wheel. This torque is generated by the frictional force between the brake band and the drum, which results in a difference in tension between the tight and loose sides of the band. Torque Absorbed By Brake is denoted by Mt symbol.
