    Motor Selection Help

    Thanks guys! I think that due to our need to spin faster, we will be using a higher-RPM motor because we need the motor, though the pros of lower-rpm seem to outweigh the cons. I appreciate all the help -- i plan on reading up on the Cowern Papers to hopefully make my motor knowledge more robust

    Motor Selection Help

    Hi all, I'm a mechanical engineer and my knowledge on electrical motors is limited so I'm asking for some help here. I need a motor to spin a shaft which will be geared to another shaft. I have the power needed, but I'm wondering if there is a difference in a 1750RPM motor or a 3500RPM motor...

    FEA on stubshaft with impeller

    Hi all, I'm looking to do an FEA on a stubshaft that has an impeller at the end of it. Mostly, I'm looking to simulate the torque from the motor on the shaft along with the forces of the impeller. Keeping the impeller in place is a key between the shaft and impeller. The problem I'm having with...
