Centrifugal force

Hi, I was been using centrifugal force for testing many materials capacity to store kinetic energy. Can u please tell me how to extract moment of inertia or energy in that angular velocity. Thanks.

Hey @golakar ,

I am not sure if I can answer your specific question about your material’s energy capacity and other abilities better than some other sources available on the internet.

From a SimScale and simulation perspective, you can simulate centrifugal forces in your simulations using an appropriate setup of boundary conditions. If you are looking for centrifugal forces induced by fluid rotation then you can refer to this tutorial about pumps:

If you want to simulate the centrifugal force boundary condition in a structural simulation, you can read more about the boundary condition here:

You can find some structural simulation tutorials here:
