Moment of inertia definitions
Moment of inertia definitions
(OP)
Hi All,
I have a curious matter where a pump agent has quoted two inertias for a DIN 150 40 pump. The values are exclusive of motor MoI. Both descriptions could not be clarified by them or other pump manufacturers. In 40 odd years in the business I have not come across them so have turned to the experts.
1) Mass MoI (PD2) 1.931 kg-m2
2) Mass Dynamic MoI 0.0452 kg-m2
The value in 1) appears to be too high for the pump. What is PD2? How does this relate to wr^2?
In 2) what is the Dynamic MoI?
In the past I have used pump inertia calculations based on estimates using relationships in Wylie, et al., pp. 148-149.Wylie, E.B., V.L. Streeter & L. Suo, Fluid Transients in Systems Prentice Hall, Englewood Hills, New Jersey, 1993.
For this size of pump a value of wr^2 is about 0.8kg-m^2.

If not that, it might be referring to an equivalent DMOI when running constantly vs when accelerating???

M is the mass of the body, in Italian not unusual to see it as P, peso = weight, and D is the distance between an axis the MoI is computed and a parallel axis trough the centre of mass of the body (check Huygens –Steiner theorem)
