What Sound Does a Faulty Flywheel Make?
1 Answers
After removing the dual-mass flywheel, gently shaking it by hand can produce a "clattering" sound. The following describes several functions of the flywheel: 1. Energy storage and speed stabilization: The flywheel uses its own moment of inertia to store part of the work input to the crankshaft during the power stroke, which is used to overcome resistance in other strokes, driving the crank linkage mechanism past the top and bottom dead centers, ensuring the crankshaft's rotational angular velocity and output torque are as uniform as possible, and enabling the engine to overcome short-term overloads. 2. Driving component: It serves as the driving component of the friction clutch, engaging and disengaging with the clutch, transmitting the engine's rotational force through the transmission to the drive wheels.
