Put it into application and you find that you've only touch on a small part of it...
Yes, there's a noticeable increase in mid range torque with thicker shaft or even a heavier flywheel.
However, as the rpm increases. the extra weight becomes a burden... It requires more effort to rotate the extra mass/weight.
On the other hand, if the flywheel or shaft is too light, it'll lose mid end torque but better high rev power... If you examined the Honda VTEC high rpm engines, you'll find that the rotating components are very light, especially the flywheel. Hence the free revving characteristic of the engines and high horsepower. However, with light rotating mass, it compromised on the mid and low end torque.
So the argument on thicker(or heavier) shaft to increase torque is correct only to an extent and it doesn't increase horsepower. In fact, it reduces the horsepower especially max power since peak power is delivered at high RPM..
i did not say heavier flywheel :stupid:, i said bigger wheel, bigger DIff gear box, bigger drive shaft; not very much heavier..., all the bigger component can be made of light weight and powerful material, BMW also can put lightweight ALUMINIUM fly wheel, but the size was SAME...
CAN YOU TELL ME WHO YOU ARE???,
woskshop mechanics???, DATUK-datuk????, Apek-APEK???, MENTERI-menteri????, MANAGER??? SCIENTIST???, PILOT????, PROFFESSOR????, ENGINEER???, illegal street racer????, LEGAL RACER???, or just rich-rich people...
those V-tec only won in KL high-way and the BORNEO..,
but nothing in the WORLD proven ground
I HOPE YOU DID NOT COMPARE TWO DIFFERENT VEHICLE CLASSES between the F1 and the
4/2-door passenger car
AND don't PUT the BRUCE LEE, JACKIE CHAN or JET LI kung FU martial arts in this TOPIC!!!
THOSE was POWERED BY BIOLOGYCAL MUSCLE!!!!
i wonder why not the human continue using MUSCLELAR HORSE for daily transportation..,
that will be much more fuel efficient!!, they just eat (expensive grass) and drink water!!!!
or maybe the BUFFOLO and COW-COW which eat cheap grass and drink any water.... LOL
or maybe you go to lead the NUCLEAR power to develope BIOLOGYCAL powered vehicle!!!????
:stupid::stupid::stupid::stupid::stupid::stupid::stupid::stupid::stupid::stupid::stupid::stupid::stupid:
you gonna turn our world into very scary alien hybrid monster world!!
