Beginner's Guide to Automotive Mechanics: Inertia, Energy, & Torque

[Lokxxx]

hey...this is lokesh. I am really interested in automobiles but the problem is that i am a beginner. I am just not able to apply the concepts of inertia energy and torque on engines. Can you please suggest me any e-books or links which would help me clear my basics? Please reply asap. Desperate to start on.

Do you know the fundamentals of automobile operation, such as engine, ignition, fuel system, exhaust, cooling system, charging system, etc?

 

[Lokxxx]

Yes i do.

 

[Chestermiller]

Yes i do.

Then someone else will have to help you. If you were just a beginner, I was going to suggest Stokel.

Welcome Lokesh. Please specify the aspects of inertia in which you're interested (mass, momentum, kinetic energy, acceleration). Energy and torque of a motor are interrelated. Energy is work (force x distance). Power is the rate at which energy is produced or consumed (force x distance / time).

Power = angular speed * torque

[power] = watts (W)
[speed] = radians per second (rad/s)
[torque] = Newton-metres (N-m)
