Abstract

The aim of this study is to design and shape optimization of flywheel rotor with different combinations of diameter and height with constant rotational speed, energy storage capacity and material properties. Shape optimization was performed for three different shapes to find the most suitable shape for rotor. The suitable combinations of rotor height and diameter of optimized shape were determined for maximum energy storage value within commercially available range. A static analysis was conducted to calculate stresses and deformations for combinations of rotor height and radius and the best combination was selected based on lowest value of stress and deformation. The narrowed down limits of these values were used for second optimization to increase precision. The intersecting combinations of diameter and height were used as input in third optimization. The final model was obtained by converging dimensions from each case experiencing the least stress and displacement. The model height 889.3 mm and outer diameter 377.1 mm had optimum deflection and minimum stress.
