While past applications of the flywheel have used conventional mechanical bearings that had relatively high losses due to friction, the development of magnetic bearings constructed using High Temperature Superconductors (HTSC) has greatly decreased the losses due to friction and increased efficiency immensely.
Superconducting bulks coupled with optimized rotor maintains thermal stability. The superconducting flywheel system exploiting the magnetic coupling between the bulk high temperature superconductors (HTSs) and permanent magnets (PMs) exhibits excellent performance of self-stable levitation, and is promising for power applications.
1. Introduction The flywheel energy storage system [1, 2] is a highly promising technology for efficient energy storage, comprising a flywheel rotor, bearings [,, ], vacuum technologies, and motor [,,,,,, ].
In particular, HTS bearings enable high-efficiency flywheel diurnal energy storage, and the technological development of flywheel energy storage that use HTS bearings has been pursued at many different laboratories worldwide [12–17].
For diurnal energy storage, a flywheel with a 5 h charge and discharge time would be of interest. In this case, a flywheel with 15 kW h of storage would be needed in a 3 kW power system. The parasitic requirements for the larger flywheel are approximately the same as the present design (e.g., HTS bearing remains the same).
