Undergrad Equivalent mass of rotating parts
wow thanks a lot for the answers ! Now if i understand correctly and make an example of this : using this formula : Iw (1/rw)2 wheelMass = 20 kg rw = 0.330 Meters Iw = polar moment of inertia of wheel = 1/2 * wheelMass * rw2 = 1.093 [kg m2] equivalent mass of rotating wheel = 1.093 *... -
