Kinetic Energy Recovery System is the Flywheel Technology and Volvo using it. Here is brief information about KERS. What is Kinetic Energy Recovery System? Kinetic Energy Recovery System (KERS) is a regenerative braking which has an energy recovery mechanism or an automotive systems use under acceleration for kinetic energy of a moving vehicle when it is recovered from breaking and stored in a reservoir. When the car is under breaking process, i…
what types of kinetic energy recovery systems can be found in vehicle - Johan Young Guides to Hybrid
Volvo system is mounted on the rear axle. At the start of braking or deceleration, the combustion engine switches off. The energy produced during deceleration and braking turns the flywheel at 60 000 rpm. At the resumption of vehicle speed, the rotation of the flywheel is transferred to the rear wheels through a specific transmission. The energy stored in the flywheel technology can be used to accelerate the vehicle when delivered in a hurry or r…
What is Alternative Energy – Part 2 There are many of alternative energy that we can harness if we want to save our Earth with a green technology. We can get away from the gasoline, old electrical grids, or other fossil fuels by turning to alternative energy. And in my previous article we have talk about WIND – SOLAR – OCEAN – HYDRO POWER. In this article I will explain the other; GEOTHERMAL ENERGY What is geothermal energy? Geothermal energy…
