What is the purpose of the flywheel?
What will be an ideal response?
The flywheel does three things:
1. The weight of the flywheel helps in carrying the crankshaft beyond BDC after the power stroke and smoothes out the power impulses of multiple cylinders.
2. A ring gear mounted on the circumference of the flywheel provides a gear drive for the starter motor. Ring gears are sometimes damaged by faulty starter motors; they can be replaced easily while the engine is out of the vehicle.
3. A flywheel also provides a surface for the clutch to work upon.
