Functions of a flywheel
Flywheel, heavy wheel attached to a rotating shaft so as to smooth out the delivery of power from a motor to a machine. The inertia of the flywheel opposes and moderates fluctuations in the speed of the engine and stores the excess energy for intermittent use. To oppose speed fluctuations effectively, a flywheel is given high rotational inertia; i.e., most of its weight is well out from the axis. The energy stored in a flywheel, however, depends on both the weight distribution and the rotary speed; if the speed is doubled, the kinetic energy is quadrupled. For minimum weight and high energy-storing capacity, a flywheel may be made of high-strength steel and designed as a tapered disk, thick at the center and thin at the rim.
How to Calculate Bending Moment in horizantal plane of centre crankshaft below flywheel at TDC due to belt tension?
Bending Moment in horizantal plane of centre crankshaft below flywheel at TDC due to belt tension calculator uses Bending Moment at Crankshaft Under Flywheel = Horizontal Reaction at Bearing 3 due to Belt*Centre Crankshaft Bearing3 Gap from Flywheel to calculate the Bending Moment at Crankshaft Under Flywheel, Bending Moment in horizantal plane of centre crankshaft below flywheel at TDC due to belt tension is the amount of bending moment in the horizontal plane of the part of the centre crankshaft below the flywheel due to the belt tension, designed for when the crank is at the top dead center position and subjected to maximum bending moment and no torsional moment. Bending Moment at Crankshaft Under Flywheel is denoted by Mb symbol.
How to calculate Bending Moment in horizantal plane of centre crankshaft below flywheel at TDC due to belt tension using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Bending Moment in horizantal plane of centre crankshaft below flywheel at TDC due to belt tension, enter Horizontal Reaction at Bearing 3 due to Belt (Rh3) & Centre Crankshaft Bearing3 Gap from Flywheel (c2) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Bending Moment in horizantal plane of centre crankshaft below flywheel at TDC due to belt tension calculation can be explained with given input values -> 93.333 = 1000.01*0.093333.
