CalWave Open Water Demonstration - PTO Belt Assessment & Test Report - Public
PTO (Power Take-Off) belt test and analysis report conducted under CalWave's Open Water Demonstration Award - EE0008097 - Belt Tradeoffs for Winch PTO. The report tests two types of belts: a high modulus polyethylene (HMPE) woven fiber belt and a steel cable polyurethane belt. The goal of the tests was to determine if belts could be used as an alternative to synthetic rope due to synthetic rope having poor cyclic bend over sheave (CBOS) performance. Both types of belts were mechanically tested to simulate the cycles PTO would undergo due to wave motion. The report includes the results of both tests as well as analysis of the two tests.
