Abstract
Reciprocating Compressors are typically used for low flow rates and high pressures. They are frequently used in mining and other sectors of the pneumatic industry. Flywheel pulleys are one of the key components used in compressors, among many other parts. The method uses a flywheel to buffer energy fluctuations, and a pulley transmits power effectively while slowing down the transmission. During this research, the flywheel's mass is optimized while keeping the moment of inertia the same as that of the old flywheel based on the compressor's requirement. Optimization, also referred to as mathematical programming, is a group of mathematical ideas and strategies for resolving quantitative issues in a variety of fields, such as physics, biology, engineering, economics, and business. A group of novel problem-solving methodologies and approaches that are inspired by natural processes are known as "nature-inspired algorithms". The flywheel optimization is carried out using a mayfly algorithm to cut down on material and production costs. The stressed-out model is validated using Ansys Mechanical. A mass reduction of 30% is obtained from this research.
