The performance of flywheel energy storage systems is closely related to their ontology rotor materials. With the in-depth study of composite materials, it is found that composite materials have high specific strength and long service life, which are very suitable for the manufacture of flywheel rotors.
Electric vehicles are typical representatives of new energy vehicle technology applications, which are developing rapidly and the market is huge. Flywheel energy storage systems can be mainly used in the field of electric vehicle charging stations and on-board flywheels.
A flywheel is an onboard energy recovery and storage system that is durable, efficient, and environmentally friendly. It works by storing energy in a rotating mechanical device, the flywheel. The temperatures of the flywheel and its housing can be influenced by the friction-induced windage losses in the air-gap of a high-speed rotating flywheel.
Based on this technology, a 50 kWh energy flywheel rotor system was designed and produced, with a rotor height of 1250 mm and an outer 900 mm. Alternative rotor systems of the same diameter have successfully reached 17,000 rpm, exceeding the design speed by 15,000 rpm.
At full speed, the flywheel has 5 kW h of kinetic energy, and it can provide 3 kW of three-phase 208v power to a power load. Small versions of this flywheel will be able to operate at very high speeds, and may require the inherent low losses in HTS bearings to achieve these speeds .
A Flywheel Kinetic Energy Recovery System (KERS) is a form of a mechanical hybrid system in which kinetic energy is stored in a spinning flywheel. This technology is being trialled by selected bus, truck, and mainstream automotive companies. Flywheel storage systems can supply instantaneous high power for short periods of time.
