Magnetic bearing support study for a 10 kW-hr energy storage flywheel

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5860712
The design of a magnetic suspension system which fully supports a 10 kW-hr energy storage flywheel is presented. Included in the design presentation are discussions leading to the selection of the suspension type and the extension of the design to other storage levels ranging from a 1 kW-hr vehicular size to a large 100 kW-hr stationary system.
