A control algorithm developed at the NASA Glenn Research Center will allow a flywheel energy storage system to interface with the electrical bus of a space power system. The controller allows the flywheel to operate in both charge and discharge modes.
[pdf] This study proposes a group control system optimization strategy coupled with a refrigeration plant model for a primary pump variable flow system, in order to improve the automation level of the refrigeration.
[pdf] A flywheel is a heavy wheel attached to a rotating shaft. Expending energy can make the wheel turn faster. This energy can be extracted by attaching the wheel to an electrical generator, which uses electromag.
