below the mean torque line in mm2 are: + 160,- 172,
+168, -191, +197,-162. The speed is to be kebt within
±1% of the mean speed of the engine. Calculate the
necessary moment of inertia of the flywheel. Determine
the suitable dimensions of a rectangular flywheel rim if
the breadth is twice its thickness. The density of the
cast iron is 7250 kg/m3 and its hoop stress is 6 MPa.
Assume that the rim contributes 92% of the flywheel
effect. (8)
