A flywheel is a mechanical device specifically designed to efficiently store rotational energy. Flywheels resist changes in rotational speed by their moment of inertia. For example, flywheels are used in reciprocating engines because the active torque from the individual pistons is intermittent. Energy storage systems.
Dual Mass Flywheel
A dual-mass flywheel (DMF) is a rotating mechanical device that is used to provide continuous energy (rotational energy) in systems where the energy source is not continuous, the same way as a conventional flywheel acts, but damping any violent variation of torque or revolutions that could cause an unwanted vibration.What happens during a flywheel replacement?
- Many Autos will inspect and test the functionality of the clutch and flywheel.
- If necessary, Many Autos will advise if flywheel needs replacing.
- Transmission makes an unusual noise whilst engaging/disengaging the clutch.
- Mechanic separates gearbox from the engine, and will replace the flywheel if necessary.
- Many Autos will advise if other components like the clutch plate need to be replaced, and can provide a quote.
- Many Autos will check the operation of the flywheel and clutch combination and will test drive car.
- Mechanic will make adjustments if necessary.
