Flywheels include flywheels, balance wheels, and flywheel pulleys mounted and revolving on crankshaft of engine or other shafting
A type of mechanical battery Flywheels store energy mechanically in the form of kinetic energy They take an electrical input to accelerate the rotor up to speed by using the built-in motor, and return the electrical energy by using this same motor as a generator Flywheels are one of the most promising technologies for replacing conventional lead acid batteries as energy storage systems for a variety of applications, including automobiles () -->
A device to store energy in a heavy, rotating mass (wheel) The heavy wheel can be attached to a machine to regulate its speed or variation in motion
