The aim and main objectives of this study is to prove the possibility of using flywheel energy storage (FES) in mobile robots, as well as to confirm the theoretical data using an experiment. One of the first scientists to bring a flywheel energy storage (FES) to practice is the Soviet-Russian Professor Gulia (born in 1939) [ 1, 2 ].
Since flywheels are featured by the smooth transition between energy import and export according to the amount of demanded energy, they are deemed as a vital element in energy-generating systems . Currently, FESSs offer rapid energy support in vast project scales, where economic feasibility is the dominant factor for their installation.
Since 2009, our team has been researching and verifying key technologies in flywheel energy storageincluding high-speed motors, electromagnetic bearings, and composite high-tension windings.
Thus, the kinetic energy of the robot’s moving parts during the braking mode is stored, and then can be used for acceleration when performing the next movement. In terms of the specific energy reserve per unit of weight, the flywheel energy storage effectively competes with the electric one, differing from it by a higher working life.
His research shows that the use of flywheel energy storage instead of any other type of devices, in particular, in a hybrid power unit, will significantly reduce energy losses. Also, it is important; the kinetic energy of the flywheel is converted into the kinetic energy of the transport mechanism with high efficiency.
