Abstract
Abstract: A flywheel stores energy in the form of kinetic (rotational) energy. Whereas each energy storage system has its inherent advantages and disadvantages compared to the others, it is the overall system performance and simplicity of flywheels that make them especially attractive for a variety of applications. Flywheel is mechanical device which is used to store the kinetic energy. There are many causes of flywheel failure. But maximum tensile and bending stresses induced in the web and rim under the action of centrifugal forces are the main causes of flywheel Failure. By changing the dimensions and shape and the materials and use such materials which increases stored energy and maintain minimum stresses with reduce mass of flywheel. It shows that smart design of flywheel geometry could both have a significant effect on the Specific Energy performance and reduce the operational loads exerted on the shaft/bearings due to reduced mass at high rotational speeds. we will compare the theoretical values of moment of Inertia with the Creo-Mechanic values so that the clear objective of the project can be seen. Our Main object is to optimise the flywheel weight without changing other important parameter like moment of inertia and its kinetic energy storage capacity.
