A steam engine develops power at mean torque of 19,000 N-m and velocity of 12 m/s. The mean diameter of the flywheel rim is 1.5 meters. The coefficient of fluctuation of speed is 0.06 and the coefficient of fluctuation of energy is 0.21. Determine the thickness of the rim in mm if the width of the rim is twice of its thickness. Assume density of rim material as 7250 kg/m3.
