yeah already calculated that, just had to figure out how much more it would expand because of centrifugal force

making a 2l roots supercharger for my 2004 2l inline 4 VW Jetta... horse power bout to double

this is mainly just a thought experiment, basically I'm creating a roots supercharger, and want to know roughly the upper-limits of the material, not going use the max rpm but the project gave me the question. the example flywheel was completely hypothetical

once again thank you, I'm glad I decided to ask for help because this is way more complicated than I thought it would be. You guys are extremely helpful

this was really helpful, exactly the kind of info I needed thanks

I'm wonder how one could calculate the total mega pascals total mega pascals that can be applied to a spinning flywheel before it exceeds its tensile strength example: a cast iron flywheel is spinning at 10,000rpm(Tangential velocity = 104.72) it has a radius of 100mm and a weight of 500g...
