Who Manufactures Flywheels For Energy Storage?
I am building a zero-emission power boat (10 knots, range 25 miles), and I don’t want to use batteries. So I have decided to use a flywheel, which will be wound up by a wind turbine. Only problem is: You can’t just walk into K-Mart and demand one. Does anybody know where to get these things?
Please see the link below for a source. I can’t vouch for it, but it looks reputable. I would find the contact information and give them a call to see how you would go about purchasing one of their units.
As a side note, I don’t think flywheels are the way to go for powering a boat since the boat may pitch around alot. Flywheels have a lot of angular momentum and like to stay pointed in one direction. You could get around this with a gimbal system, but you would still be heaving the unit up and down. The other problem is that flywheels can be nasty if they fail. A fractured rotor can cause a lot of damage as it flies about. Some flywheels are mounted in pits below a home to contain the debris in the event of a rotor failure.
