Application of flywheel energy storage for heavy haul locomotives
Flywheel based energy storages utilise the kinetic energy stored in a rotating mass as a storage medium. For any storage system, the energy and power limits are key operational constraints. The stored energy will be: (5) E f = 1 2 J f ω f 2 where E f is the rotational kinetic energy (J), J f is the moment of inertia (kg m 2 ) and ω f is the …
