The value of WK
2
is important for applications involving
timed, cyclic duty or when starting or stopping heavy
loads. Use one or all of the three methods shown here
to estimate the inertia.
1. The inertia of solid steel shafting is given in the
following table. The values given are per inch of shaft
length.
To determine WK
2
of a normal shaft or disc, multiply
the WK
2
from the chart by the length of the shaft or
thickness of the disc in inches.
Note: For hollow shafts, subtract WK
2
of the i.d. from
WK
2
of the o.d. and multiply by the length.
2. For solid cylinders of a given weight, WK
2
is estimated
by:
Where: WK
2
= intertia in lb ft
2
R = cylinder radius in feet
W = weight in pounds
3. For solid or hollow cylinders, the inertia is calculated
by the following equations:
Solid Cylinder:
Hollow Cylinder:
WK

= .000681 p LD

WK

= .000681 p L (D

Where WK

D, D

, D

, and L are in inches
p
=
lb/in
3
where p (aluminum) = .0924
p (cast iron) = .260
p (steel) = .282
Calculate the inertia of complex, concentric, rotating
parts by breaking the part into simple cylinders,
calculating the inertia or each, and summing the values.
