    Flywheel Power
Click For Summary
To rotate a flywheel from rest to 1450 RPM using an 1100-watt motor, the size of the flywheel must be calculated based on the desired energy storage of at least 700 joules. A flywheel calculator can assist in determining the appropriate size and weight needed for this energy storage. It's important to note that power is defined as energy per unit time, meaning the flywheel's energy dissipation rate will influence its power output. Understanding these principles is crucial for optimizing the flywheel's design and performance. Proper calculations will ensure the flywheel meets the energy requirements effectively.

hi sir
i have 1100 watt motor and i want to rotat the fly wheel from rest to 1450 rpm.i want to know how big should be

the flywheel to rotate at the motor 1100 watt and to get extra energy 700 joule or more than if possiable
best regard
thnx

I'm not sure I understand what you are looking for, but doesn't that flywheel calculator tell you how big/heavy the flywheel needs to be to store 700J?

Also, just to be clear: power is energy per unit time. Flywheels store energy and how long it takes to dissipate that energy determines the power.
 
My idea is that I want to use immerse Whitetail Antlers in a fishtank to measure their volumetric displacement (the Boone and Crockett system is the current record measurement standard to place in a juxtaposition with) I would use some sight glass plumbed into the side of the tank to get the change in height so that I can multiply by the tank cross-section. Simple Idea. But... Is there a simple mechanical way to amplify the height in the sight glass to increase measurement precision...
