In this paper, an experimental characterisation technique for Flywheel Energy Storage Systems (FESS) behaviour in self-discharge phase is presented. The self-discharge phase characterisation is crucial in order to design performing and sustainable FESS. . Because flywheel energy storage relies on high-speed rotors to capture and maintain energy, it's important that these rotors be adequately tested to ensure optimal performance. At Test Devices by SCHENCK, we offer industry-leading spin testing services for customers working with high-speed rotating. . The Boeing team has designed, fabricated, and is currently testing a 5 kWh / 100 kW Flywheel Energy Storage System (FESS) utilizing the Boeing patented high temperature superconducting (HTS) bearing suspension system. When energy is extracted from the system, the flywheel's rotational speed is reduced as a consequence of the principle of conservation of energy; adding energy to the. . Fig.
