Abstract

Computer simulation of a flywheel electric-drive system integrates electromechanical and thermal models of the energy-storage unit and the propulsion plant with the vehicle itself. Using as input the route and speed profiles of the vehicle, the computer program based on the simulation calculates as a function of time the pertinent electrical and mechanical variables, the losses, the component temperatures, and the energy expended by the flywheel. The simulation can be used for selecting electric-machine configurations and ratings in order to optimize the performance of the vehicle and the transit system.
