Abstract: This paper presents the theory and numerical results of utilizing four gimbaled, magnetically suspended, variable speed flywheels for simultaneous satellite attitude control and power transfer ...

Abstract: Theory and simulation results have demonstrated that four, variable speed flywheels could potentially provide the energy storage and attitude control functions of existing batteries and control ...

Abstract: An energy-storage flywheel consists of a large inertia wheel sharing a common shaft with a motor generator (MG) set and with magnetic bearings to support the entire rotating assembly. Flywheels mounted on a special slug ...

Abstract: The objectives of the present study were to investigate the flow structure and assess the accuracy of loss correlations in the symmetric volute of a turbo-blower using 3D steady flow analysis ...

Abstract: In centrifugal compressors, the diffuser and the volute have strong influences on the flow discharged from the impeller and thus also on the performance. In particular, a key parameter is the ...
