Determining Motor Speed? - Chief Delphi

Go to Post

First of all, please remember that while we often focus on winning the Chairman's Award, that it is the effort to win that matters. No one "loses" RCA... if you've worked your butt off all year in the spirit of the award, then you've already won before you even get to the regional. - dtengineering [more]

(3600 / 60) * (8/12) = 40

3600 rpm / 60 = 60 rps

8 inches * pi = 25.13 inches per rev

60 rps * 25.13 ipr = 1508 inches/sec

1508 inches/sec /12 = 126 feet/sec
