Is the Flywheel the Driving or Driven Component of the Clutch?

[Rosalie]

Flywheel is the driving component of the clutch. Introduction to the Flywheel: The flywheel is a mechanical device used to store rotational kinetic energy in rotating motion. The flywheel tends to resist changes in rotational speed. When the power source exerts a varying torque on the rotating shaft or when applied to intermittent loads, the flywheel can reduce speed fluctuations, making the rotational motion smoother. Function of the Flywheel: When the input work exceeds the output work, the flywheel converts the excess energy into its own kinetic energy, simultaneously accelerating the flywheel; when the input work is less than the output work, the flywheel decelerates, and the released kinetic energy can then serve as power output.
