1) Model the flywheel in CAD, and get the moment of inertia that way (make sure you look at the right one, which will depend on the orientation that you modelled it at) 2) Calculate how much energy is in the flywheel at target speed. E = 1/2 I ω^2 3) Get a motor rated at the _power_ needed to get that much energy into the flywheel in the target time. 4) Then swap that motor for one twice as big. -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1912 _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
