The invention provides an
energy storage and conversion
system which is applied to fixed fields such as
load regulation in
power grid, widn power generation and the like.
Flywheel energy storage is adopted, a routine synchronous or asynchronous motor / generator is connected with a
power grid, and homopolar
electromagnetic transmission (HET) is adopted as stepless speed change torque change
transmission equipment between a
flywheel and a motor. The better scheme of the
flywheel is to adopt a vertical type flexible
flywheel structure or a suspension type flexible flywheel structure, and the suspension type flexible flywheel structure is especially suitable for the flywheel of large
mass. The suspension type flexible flywheel structure can solve the unbalance and
resonance problem when a rotor is simply supported by combination of a flywheel body and a rotating shaft as usual. An axial support permanent
magnet bearing on a vertical type rotating shaft can solve the gravity support problem of the large-
mass flywheel. A flexible connection multi-body flywheel body of the flywheel facilitates manufacturing and improvement of
energy storage volume density. An energy input / output conversion
system composed of the HET and a common motor solves the problem that a motor is large in calorific power and poor in heat
radiation, cannot be limited in the aspect of transmission power, and is high in equipment
power density, low in cost and high in
energy conversion efficiency.
