9.2 Quadratic Curves
ā The deceleration curves are inverted images of the acceleration curves with
the same numbers.
Quadratic Curves (10 - 19)
Figure 3
The curve 19 is a special case compared with the other curves. The centrifuge
accelerates with maximum torque. The acceleration time only depends on the
moment of inertia of the rotor.
Quadratic curve no. Time up to 1000 rpm Slope from 1000 rpm linear
