Flywheel energy storage | A DIY demonstrator of flywheel energy storage
This project explores flywheel energy storage systems through the development of a prototype aimed at minimizing friction. I designed a motor with no mechanical bearings.
How To Build A Flywheel Energy Storage System?
Flywheel Energy Storage (FES) is a method of storing and using energy by accelerating a rotor (flywheel) to a high speed and maintaining the energy in the system as
Flywheel energy storage
Flywheel energy storage (FES) works by spinning a rotor (flywheel) and maintaining the energy in the system as rotational energy.
