State of Charge Evolution Equations for Flywheels

چکیده
I. INTRODUCTION Flywheel energy storage devices are composed of a spinning composite disk in an low-pressure enclosure designed to contain the debris in the case of operation failure [18]. An electric motor-generator connector is used to convert the electric energy to kinetic energy by applying a torque on the flywheel. The torque can be positive (charge) or negative (discharge). The flywheel levitates over magnetic bearings in order to reduce friction. A cooling system must be used to remove the heat produced by the remaining friction and the electric components. To reduce drag losses, a vacuum pump is used to create a low-pressure vacuum in the enclosure. Flywheel technology has greatly improved in the past few years such that modern flywheels can rotate up to 100,000 round per minute (rpm) in a low-pressure vacuum enclosure and achieve a very high energy density [16]. The fast response time of flywheels makes this technology well suited for grid support (especially frequency regulation) [12], [4], [19]. Comprehensive overviews of flywheel energy storage devices are provided in [17], [8]. Extensive work has been done on flywheel energy storage devices and their modeling, but most of these works rely on simulation and circuit models [21], [2], [9], [3]. Nassar et al. [15] propose a simple algorithm for simulating flywheel energy storage devices. However, this model does not include the charging/discharging inefficiencies and the self-discharge of the flywheel. Flywheels can suffer from significant leakage rates, due to frictional windage and magnetic losses from the bearings and motor-generator components [14], [7]. Hearn et al. [10] make a conservative simplification on the core losses, and model the state of charge (SoC) evolution of a flywheel with a first-order differential equation. A flywheel energy storage system based on a doubly-fed induction motor-generator is composed of a wound-rotor induction machine and a cycloconverter. These storage devices are capable of both active and reactive power control while the conventional synchronous-speed rotary condenser is only capable of reactive power control. By adjusting the rotor speed of the doubly-fed induction machine, the motor-generator can either provide the electric power to the grid or draw it from the grid. Even though the model of Hearn et al. [10] includes a detailed description of the frictional windage and magnetic losses, it neglects the impact of the active power controller on the supplied/drawn energy from the flywheel. The purpose of this study is to obtain formulas for …

Semilinear stochastic evolution equations with multiplicative L'evy noise are considered. The drift term is assumed to be monotone nonlinear and with linear growth.

We establish the continuous dependence of the mild solution with respect to initial conditions and also on coefficients. As corollaries of ...
