Spinner Energy Calculator

Bar Spinner Energy Calculator
Input	Output
Material Steel Titanium Aluminum	KE (Joules)
Length (inches)	Mass (pounds) (Kg)
Width (inches)	Moment of inertia(KgM^2)
Thickness (inches)	Diagonal (inches)
RPM	Tip Speed (M/sec) (feet/sec) (MPH)

This is a simple Javascript energy calculator for bar spinner weapons made of steel, titanium or aluminum. Check the box for material type (steel, titanium or aluminum) then enter the length,width,thickness and RPM. Mass, kinetic energy and tip speed will be calculated.

Spinning weapon Energy Calculator
Input	Output
Moment of inertia (Kg-M^2)	KE (Joules)
Spinner diameter (inches)	Tip Speed (M/sec) (feet/sec) (MPH)
RPM

This is a general purpose energy calculator for spinner weapons of any shape. Inputs are moment of inertia (Kg-M^2), diameter, and RPM. Moment of inertia can be obtained from the CAD design of the weapon.
