• Necessity
In a combustion engine, & especially in one
with one or two cylinders, energy is imparted to
the crankshaft intermittently, & in order to keep
it rotating at a fairly uniform speed under a
substantially constant load, it is necessary to
provide it with a flywheel.

• In a single cylinder engine(4 Stroke), in which
there is only one power stroke in two
revolutions of the crankshaft, a considerable
fraction of energy generated per cycle is stored
in the flywheel, & the proportion thus storeddecreases with an increase in the No. of
cylinders
• In a 4 cylinder engine about 40% of the energyof the cycle is temporarily stored.

However,not all of this energy goes into flywheelDuring the 1st half of the power stroke, when
energy is being supplied in excess by the burninggases, all of the reciprocating parts of the engine
are being accelerated & absorb energy; besides, therotating parts other than the flywheel also havesome flywheel capacity, & this reduces the
proportion of the energy of the cycle which must bestored in the flywheel.

• In a 6 cylinder engine the proportion of the energy
which must be absorbed & returned by the moving
parts amounts to about 20%.
• The greater the No. of cylinders the smaller the
flywheel capacity required per unit of piston
displacement, because the overlap of power
strokes is greater & besides other rotating parts of the engine have greater inertia.

• However, the flywheel has by far the greatest
inertia even in a multi cylinder engine.
• Aside from its principle function, the fly wheel
serves as a member of the friction clutch, & it
usually carries also the ring gear of the electric
starter.

Flywheel
•Energy accumulator•Energy re-distributor
•A flywheel serves as a reservoir which stores
energy during the period when the supply of energy is more than the requirement & releases, it
during the period when the requirement of energy
is more than supply.•A flywheel helps to keep the crankshaft rotating at
a uniform speed

In internal combustion engines,• the energy is developed during one stroke and the
engine is to run for the whole cycle on the energyproduced during this one stroke.
• the energy is developed, only during power stroke which is much more than the engine load; and noenergy is being developed during suction,
compression and exhaust strokes in case of 4 strokeengines & during compression in case of 2 strokeengines.

• The excess energy developed during power stroke is
absorbed by the flywheel and releases it to thecrankshaft during other strokes in which no energyis developed, thus rotating the crankshaft at a
uniform speed.• When the flywheel absorbs energy, its speed
increases and when it releases, the speeddecreases. Hence a flywheel does not maintain aconstant speed, it simply reduces the fluctuation of speed.

• The function of a governor in engine is entirely different
from that of a flywheel
Governor regulates the mean speed of an enginewhen there are variations in the load,e.g., when the loadon the engine increases it becomes necessary to increasethe supply of Working fluid. On the other hand, when theload decreases, less working fluid is required.
The governor automatically; controls the supply, of working fluid to the engine with the varying load conditionand keeps the mean speed within certain limits.

• The flywheel does not maintain constant speed
• It simply reduces the fluctuation of speed.
• A flywheel controls the speed variations caused bythe fluctuation of the engine turning moment
during each cycle of operation.
It does not control the speed variations causedby the varying load.

Capacity & Diameter
• The flywheel capacity of a given mass increases with itsdistance from the axis of rotation ; consequently, if the
flywheel is made large in diameter it need not be so heavy.
•
On the other hand there are two reasons for limiting thediameter.
– At high rpm, flywheel is subjected to disruptive or bursting force,
& by keeping down the diameter, the F O S can be kept high.
– As it is cast or cast & pressed steel housing, this need not weigh somuch if the diameter is smaller

Construction of Flywheels
The flywheels of smaller size
(up to 600 mm diameter) are
casted in one piece.
The rim & hub are joined
together by means of web.
The holes in the web may
be made for handling purposes.

In case the flywheel isof larger size (up to 2.5m
diameter), the arms are
made instead of web.The number of arms
depends upon the size of
flywheel & its speed of rotation.

The split flywheels are above 2.5m diameter & are
usually casted in two piece.
It has advantage of relieving shrinkage stresses inarms due to unequal rate of cooling of casting.

•The Maximum Fluctuation of Speed
the difference between the maximum &
minimum speeds during a cycle. i.e., =(N1-N2 )
Where, N1=Maximum speed in r.p.m. during the cycle,N2=Minimum speed in r.p.m. during the cycle
•The Coefficient of Fluctuation of Speed is the ratio
of the maximum fluctuation of speed to the mean
speed.

• work done=turning moment x angle turned
• The area of the turning moment diagram represents thework done per revolution
• Engine is assumed to work against the mean resisting
torque,• Since it is assumed that
work done by the turning moment / revolution =work done against the mean resisting torque
Therefore,area of rectangle (aAFe) is proportional to work doneagainst the mean resisting torque.

• When crank moves from 'a' to 'p'
work done by the engine is = area aBp,
whereas the energy required = area aABp.• In other words, the engine has done less work than
the requirement. This amount of energy is taken
from the flywheel and hence the speed of the
flywheel decreases.

Now the
• crank moves from p to q,
• work done by the engine = area pBbCq
• requirement of energy = area pBCq• Therefore the engine has done more work than the
requirement.
This excess work is stored in the flywheel and hencethe speed of the flywheel increases while the crankmoves from p to q.

• Similarly when the crank moves from q to r,
more work is taken from engine than is developed= areaCcD.
To supply this loss, the flywheel gives up some of its
energy and thus the speed decreases while the crankmoves from q to r.
• As the crank moves from r to s,
excess energy is again developed = area DdE
& the speed again increases.• As the piston moves from s to e,
again there is a loss of work & the speed decreases.

• Engine has a max. speed either at q or at s.
This is due to the fact that flywheel absorbs energy
while the crank moves from p to q and from r to s.
• Engine has a minimum speed either at p or at r.The reason is that flywheel gives out some of its
energy when the crank moves from a to p and q to r.
• The difference between the maximum and the minimum
energies is known as maximum fluctuation of energy.

For a 4 Stroke IC Engine,
•During suction stroke, since the pr. inside the engine
cylinder is less than the atmospheric pr., a negative loop isformed
•During compression stroke, the work is done on thegases, there a higher negative loop is obtained
•In the working stroke, the fuel burns & the gases expand,therefore a large positive loop is formed
•During exhaust stroke, the work is done on the gases,therefore a negative loop is obtained

Stresses in a Flywheel Rim
•A flywheel, consists of a rim at which major portion of massor weight is concentrated.
•Following types of stresses are induced in the rim
1. Tensile stress due to centrifugal force,
2. Tensile bending stress caused by the restraint
of the arms, and
3. The shrinkage stresses due to unequal rate of
cooling of casting. This stress is taken care of by a factorof safety.

Stresses in Rim
1. Tensile stress due to centrifugal force
The tensile stress in the rim due
to the centrifugal force, assuming
that rim is unstrained by arms, is
determined in a similar way as a
thin cylinder subjected to internal pr..
Tensile stress,
ςt =ρ.R2.ω2 =ρ.v2 ...(v = ω.R)
(when ρ is in kg/m3 and v is in m/s, then σ t will be in N/m2 or Pa)
Note: From the above expression the mean diameter (D) of theflywheel may be obtained by using the relation v =πDN / 60

•Dimensions of a flywheel rim
We know that, Mass of the flywheel rim,m = Vol. x density =2πR x A x ρ = πD x (b x t )x ρ b=2t (given)
•Peripheral velocity (v) & mean diameter (D)
We know that, tensile stress, ςt=ρ.v2
i.e., ςt=6 x 106=ρ.v2 =7250 X v2
So, v2 =(6 x 106)/7250 =827.6 or v =28.76 m/s
We also know that, peripheral velocity,v = (πDN)/60i.e., v=28.76 = (πDN)/60 = (πDx600)/60 = 31.42 D

•Mass of flywheel rim
Since rim contributes 92% of flywheel effect,
:. Energy of flywheel rim, Erim = 0.92 x total Energy of the flywheel, E
Max. fluctuation of energy, ∆E= E x 2 Cs
i.e., ∆E =2581 = E x 2 Cs =E x 2 x 0.02 = 0.04 E
:. E = 2581/ 0.04 = 64525 N-m& Energy of flywheel rim, E rim = 0.92 E
(v=ωR) = 0.92 x 64525 = 59363 Nm
Also, Erim= (1/2)Iω2 = (1/2)mk2ω2 = (1/2)mR2ω2 = (1/2)xmxv2
i.e., 59363 = 1/2 x m x v2 = 1/2 x m (28.76)2 = 413.6 m

The mass of the flywheel rim may also
be obtained by using following relations.
Since the rim contributes 92% of the flywheel effect,
•Irim = 0.92xIflywheel or m.k2= 0.92 x 32.7 =30 kgm2
Since radius of gyration, k =R =D/2 = 0.915/2 =0.4575m,
i.e., m=(30/k2) =(30/0.45752) =(30/0.2092)=143.5kg
•(∆ E) rim = 0.92 (∆ E )flywheel
m. V2.CS = 0.92 (∆ E )flywheel
m (28.76)2x0.02= 0.92x 2581

Stresses in Flywheel Arms
Following stresses are induced in the arms of aflywheel
•Tensile stress due to centrifugal force acting on the
rim.•Bending stress due to torque transmitted from the
rim to the shaft or from the shaft to the rim.
•Shrinkage stresses due to unequal rate of cooling of casting. These stresses are difficult to determine.
