Abstract
- Regenerative braking system is a system for recovering the moving vehicle's kinetic energy under braking load and to convert the this loss in kinetic energy of vehicle which usually would be wasted and dissipated as heat in the brakes into useful form of energy either mechanical or electrical. Conventional regenerative braking systems available in the market are converting the loss in kinetic energy of the vehicle into electrical energy that is stored in battery for further use. Present day regenerative braking systems make use of motor-generator setup for this purpose. There is a need of a innovative system to tap the usually wasted loss of kinetic energy to suitable mechanical energy. The proposed mechanical to electrical regenerative braking uses an innovative planetary gear train and dedicated drum brake system to recover the loss of kinetic energy from the wheel hub of the vehicle and convert it to electric energy through a flywheel ad dynamo arrangement. This system minimal loss in transmission there by leading to better efficiency and better conversion ratio as compared to any other earlier braking system using motor-generator set up.
