Abstract

In this study, a novel vehicle-mounted flywheel battery system is proposed, which can effectively balance the load capacity with margin, strong anti-interference, uncoupled magnetic circuit and low energy consumption. The proposed new flywheel battery adopts multiple magnetic circuits, reducing the number of permanent magnets and the complexity of the magnetic circuit. It is worth mentioning that the proposed ``side branch'' radial/tilting shared magnetic circuit can realize the main bearing function of the flywheel weight, and the axial biased magnetic field is used to suspend the near ``zero weight'' flywheel, so that the flywheel can withstand a certain interference margin in the axial direction, and then improve the active disturbance rejection and effectively reduce the control loss. After optimization, the unique overall structure of the flywheel battery can significantly improve the overall performance of the flywheel battery. Finally, the stiffness, decoupling, and anti-interference experiments are carried out, and the experimental results show that the proposed flywheel battery has good performance.
