Capacidad del rotor de un acumulador cinético (FES: Flywheel Energy Storage) para diferentes materiales utilizando el cálculo analítico tensional

Abstract

• Nowadays, the energy storage is a fundamental aspect and
there exists so many ways to do it. One of these ways, is the
energy storage associated to rotational kinetic energy, better
known like Flywheel Energy Storage (FES). FES is a complex
system formed by different subsystems, and the most important
of these subsystems is the rotor because it´s the element that
enabled performs the function of storing energy. Rotor’s can be
classified into two types: the rotors made with metal and the
rotors made with composites. This article exposes a comparison
between different settings of rotors to demonstrate the
advantage of the use of composites comparing with the use of
metals, especially in terms of energy density.
