Which of the following helps in the uniform speed of crankshaft despite uneven power impulses of the engine cylinder?(a) Piston(b) Connecting rod(c) Gasket(d) FlywheelThis question was posed to me by my college professor while I was bunking the class.The question is from Engine Components in chapter Basic Engine Components of Automotive Engine Design

Answer»

Right CHOICE is (d) Flywheel

Best explanation: The flywheel ABSORBS EXCESS energy during the power stroke and GIVES out the absorbed energy during the other three STROKES. Thus it is the flywheel that keeps the crankshaft rotating at the uniform speed throughout despite uneven power impulses of engine cylinders.
