Question 2

A circular solid disc of uniform thickness 20 mm, radius 400 mm and mass 10 kg, is used At a flywheel. If it rotates at 300 rpm, the kinetic energy of the flywheel, in joules is ___________.

Question 3

Question 4

A flywheel whose moment of inertia is 3000 kg-m2 is attached to a shaft which starts from rest and undergoes a uniform acceleration of 0.5 rad/. Calculate the kinetic energy (kJ) of the flywheel after 20s from its start?

Question 5

The crank of a slider-crank punching press has a mass moment of inertia of. The figure below shows the torque demand per revolution for a punching operation. If the speed of the crank is found to drop from 30 rad/s to 20rad/s during punching, what is maximum torque demand during the punching operation?

Question 6

The turning moment diagram for a single cylinder double acting steam engine consists of +ve and –ve loops above and below the average torque line. For the +ve loop, the ratio of the speeds of the flywheel at the beginning and the end is which one of the following?

Question 7

Among the following four designs of a flywheel with given mass M (kg) and external diameter D (m), which is the one with highest energy storage capacity?

Question 8

The flywheel of a machine having weight of 4500N and radius of gyration of 2 m has cyclic fluctuation of speed from 125 r.p.m. to 120 r.p.m. Assuming , the maximum fluctuation of energy is

Question 9

If the speed of an engine varies between 390 and 410 rpm in a cycle of operation, the coefficient of fluctuations of speed would be:

Question 10
