What is the formula to calculate the moment of inertia of a flywheel?
The moment of inertia of a body depends on the axis of rotation and the distribution of mass about the axis of rotation. Equation (3) indicates that a rotating body having a large moment of inertia, like a flywheel, can be used to store large amounts of kinetic energy. – T – mg= – ma, or T = m(g – a).
How much is the moment of inertia of a flywheel?
It is given that, the moment of inertia of a flywheel is $0.2kg{m^2}$which is initially stationary. A constant external torque 5Nm acts on the wheel. Torque is defined as the measure of the force that can cause an object to rotate about an axis. Force is what causes an object to accelerate in linear kinematics.
What are the n1 and n2 in the formula of measuring moment of inertia of a fly wheel?
n1 = Number of turns of string wrapped on axis. n2 = Number of oscillation up to flywheel stopped after detaching the mass. t = time of oscillation up to flywheel stopped after detaching the mass.
What is axle in flywheel?
The flywheel consists of a heavy circular disc/massive wheel fitted with a strong axle projecting on either side. The axle is mounted on ball bearings on two fixed supports. There is a small peg on the axle. One end of a cord is loosely looped around the peg and its other end carries the weight-hanger.
How do you measure a flywheel?
1) COUNT THE NUMBER OF DRILLED AND TAPPED HOLES ON YOUR FLYWHEEL. 2) MEASURE THE DISTANCE FROM THE CENTER OF ONE DRILLED AND TAPPED HOLE TO ANOTHER (MEASURING ACROSS THE CENTER LINE OF THE CRANK SHAFT) [DIMENSION “C”].
How do you find the moment of inertia of a beam?
T section is a structural beam with a t shaped cross section and their materials are generally mild steel, aluminum and stainless steel….T Section Formula:
| T SECTION BEAM | ||
|---|---|---|
| Cross section area | A | A = Bh + Hb |
| Area moment of inertia | Ixx | Ixx = bH(ycog-H/2)2 + bH3/12 + hB(H + h/2 – ycog)2 + h3B/12 |
What is n1 and n2 in fly wheel experiment?
n1 = Number of turns of string wrapped on axis. n2 = Number of oscillation up to flywheel stopped after detaching the mass.
