In aircraft design and engineering, “rotational speed” refers to the speed at which a component, such as a rotor, turbine, or propeller, rotates about its axis. Rotational speed is an essential parameter for various aircraft components and systems.
The formula for calculating rotational speed (N) can be defined as:
- Rotational Speed (N) is the rotational speed, typically measured in revolutions per minute (RPM) or other rotational speed units.
- Frequency (f) is the frequency of rotation, typically measured in hertz (Hz), which represents the number of rotations per second.
