A typical system consists of a flywheel supported by rolling-element bearing connected to a motor–generator. The flywheel and sometimes motor–generator may be enclosed in a vacuum chamber to reduce friction and energy loss. First-generation flywheel energy-storage systems use a large steel flywheel rotating on mechanical bearings.
Ekaterina Kurbatova proposed a magnetic system for an axial-type same pole motor suitable as both motor/generator in combination with the integrated design of the motor/generator, which can be utilized in conjunction with the flywheel energy storage system.
Other opportunities are new applications in energy harvest, hybrid energy systems, and flywheel's secondary functionality apart from energy storage. The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper.
In, a flywheel for balancing control of a single-wheel robot is presented. In, two flywheels are used to generate control torque to stabilize the vehicle under the centrifugal force of turning. 5. Conclusion In this paper, state-of-the-art and future opportunities for flywheel energy storage systems are reviewed.
