Abstract |
|
This paper discusses the Energy Recovery Systems being used in Formula One and other Hybrid and High Performance Cars, namely Electrical Kinetic Energy Recovery System (KERS) with Exhaust Energy Recovery System, Mechanical ERS and Hydraulic ERS. [4][5]The introduction of Energy Recovery System was primarily to improve Efficiency of cars. [3]But proper exploitation of ERS has not only led to increase of efficiency but has also fulfilled the sudden power demand while overtaking hence reducing lap times[1][2]. The system stores waste energy in a reservoir and releases it under acceleration. |
