Theory of Machines Miscellaneous

  1. A flywheel connected to a punching machine has to supply energy of 400 Nm while running at a mean angular speed of 20 rad/s. If the total fluctuation of speed is not to exceed ± 2% the mass moment of inertia of the flywheel in kg-m² is
    1. 25
    2. 50
    3. 100
    4. 125
Correct Option: A

ΔE = 400Nm
ωmean = 20 rad/s
CS = ± 2%

= 2 ×
2
= 0.04
100

ΔE = Iω²meanCS
400 = I(20)² × 0.04
I = 25 kg-m²
