The turning-moment diagram for an engine, which has been drawn to scales of 1 mm to 50 Nm and I mm to 1° of rotation of crankshaft, shows that the greatest amount of energy which has to be stored by the flywheel is represented by an area of 2250 mm 2. The flywheel is to run at a mean speed of 240 rpm with a total speed variation of 2 per cent. If the mass of the flywheel is to be 450 kg, determine suitable dimensions for the rim, Cast iron has a density of 7.2 Mg/m3.
