Advantages of a Lightweight Flywheel in Automotive Engines

Advantages of a Lightweight Flywheel in Automotive Engines

A lightweight flywheel in an automotive engine offers several advantages, including: * Improved Engine Response: The reduced weight of the flywheel allows the engine to rev up and down more quickly, resulting in improved throttle response. This means that the engine can rapidly increase or decrease its rotational speed, making the vehicle more responsive to driver inputs. * Increased Acceleration: The lighter flywheel reduces rotational inertia, allowing the engine to transfer power to the wheels more efficiently. This results in quicker acceleration, particularly in situations that require frequent speed changes, such as stop-and-go traffic or racing scenarios. * Improved Gear...
