Abstract :
A line-shaft drive paper machine was investigated while operating to determine the individual power requirement of each section. A step by step sequence of tests was developed to isolate the operating power requirements of each section. This paper documents the steps required for this power evaluation and generalizes the recommendations for other paper machines.
