Abstract

In order to increase efficiency of small vehicles like bicycles, mopeds kinetic energy recovery is essential. By using kinetic energy recovery devices like flywheels one can recover this kinetic energy. As in conventional designs of such a small vehicles there is no provision of flywheel or any other kinetic energy recovery system, large part of this kinetic energy is remained unrecovered. Hence there is a possibility to increase efficiency of these vehicles by using flywheels. The aim of this paper is to provide a review on literature present, on application of kinetic energy recovery in small vehicles and possibilities of its implementation.
