Abstract: Flywheel, a machineelement is used to store rotational energy. Itwill have a specificmoment of inertia
and resists changes in speed. The amount of energy stored in it, is proportional to the square of its rotational
speed. Energy is stored in a flywheel by applying torque to it, thereby increasing its rotational speed. Then it
releases stored energy by applying torque to a mechanical load, thereby decreasing its rotational speed.

Key words: Flywheel C Programming

INTRODUCTION

Flywheel is a rotating machine element that is used to


store rotational energy. Flywheels have a specific moment
of inertia and thus resist changes in rotational speed.
The amount of energy stored in a flywheel is proportional
to the square of its rotational speed. Energy is transferred
to a flywheel by applying torque to it, thereby increasing
its rotational speed and hence its stored energy.
Conversely, a flywheel releases stored energy by
applying torque to a mechanical load, thereby decreasing Interface. Withthe increasing popularity of object-

#include<stdio.h> using readymade library function printf( ). The general
#include<conio.h> form of printf( ) function is,
#include<math.h> printf ( "<format string>", <list of variables> );
Following are some examples of usage of printf( )
Any program start with library functions which function:
define the type of operation, like mathematical operation printf("Enter the Power to be transmitted \n");
the types of data structures provided by c can be printf("\nEnter the Newton value \n");
classified as Fundamental data types, Derived data types printf("\n\n Nominal Torque transmitted is %f nm \n",s);
Fundamental data types include the data types at the What is ‘\n’ doing in this statement? It is called newline.

main( ) is a collective name given to a set of statements. Program:
All statements that belong to main( ) are enclosed within #include<stdio.h>
a pair of braces { } as shown below. #include<conio.h>
main( ) #include<math.h>
{ int p, n;
statement 1; float s, m, z,r;
statement 2; int main()
statement 3; { voidtorquecal();
} voidmaxtorq();
void diameter();
Technically speaking,main( ) is a function. Every voidbendstress();
function has a pair of parentheses ( ) associated with it. void elliptical();
Any variable used in the program must be declared printf("Enter the Power to be transmitted \n");
before using it. scanf("%d", and p);
printf("\nEnter the Newton value \n");
For example, scanf("%d", and n);
int p, n; torquecal();
float s m,z,r; maxtorq();
Any C statement always ends with a; diameter();
For example, bendstress();
floats,m,z, r; elliptical();
In the statement, getch();
s=(p*60)/(2*3.14*n); }
r=(m*1000*v)/(n*s*1000); voidtorquecal()
{ s=(p*60)/(2*3.14*n);
‘*’and ‘/’ are the arithmetic operators. The printf("\n\n Nominal Torque transmitted is %f nm \n",s);
arithmetic operators available in C are +, -, * and /. C is }
very rich in operators. There are about 45 operators voidmaxtorq()
available in C. { m=2*s;
