Coefficient of Fluctuation of Speed for Flywheel given Linear Velocity Calculator

Calculate Coefficient of Fluctuation of Speed





Formula

The formula to calculate the Coefficient of Fluctuation of Speed is:

\[ C_s = 2 \cdot \frac{v_1 - v_2}{v_1 + v_2} \]

Where:

Definition

The Coefficient of Fluctuation of Speed is the ratio of the maximum fluctuation of speed to the mean speed.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ C_s = 2 \cdot \frac{28 - 12}{28 + 12} \]

Evaluating:

\[ C_s = 0.8 \]

The Coefficient of Fluctuation of Speed is 0.8.
